I've gotten that from time to time, but it seems like only from companies that I don't want to work for anyway. They're usually for a particular area on the other side of a mountain that my city backs up to. There are two ways to go: one by freeway, which takes about 1.5 hrs - if the traffic isn't too bad, which is hardly ever true - and another that is up and over, via a mostly 2-lane road. That route has a nickname (I can't remember) that refers to all the deaths that have happened on that route...
None come close to what I'd want to charge to go there - if I was willing to do it at all, which I no longer am! (I did some there as a newbie, but for fees that are rare these days.) |
