#35. December Financials

If you have not listened to episode 33, Bad News, Good News, listen to that first. There is a backstory to this episode, and understanding it will give you better context to this episode as we go over the December financials. What to Expect From Episode 35 December was a tough month. I had to do an engine rebuild, so I was out of commission and did not pick up my first load until the 17th. I ran until the 23rd and then was back at it on the 26th. I was hoping to take a little more time off around the holidays, but fate wanted me taking my time off earlier in the month. Obviously, December was not going to be a great month, but it could have been a lot worse. Because the repairs were all covered under warranty I didn't have any repair costs. The bad news is revenue and my pay as a driver was way down. The good news is that I actually turned a profit for the month, just a small one. Some of the highlights are below. Listen to the episode where Craig and I talk about these numbers and the profit and loss statement and balance sheet in more detail.
