#Once you chose which business you want to work for, remember its ID, you will need it to get a GPS Marker aswell as to sign up to work.
===How to do it?===
#Go on duty as trucker or pilot and load up your cargo.
#Next, head to the business you want to work for and enter or stand near the business building.
#Now, press '''F5 - Company Information - View Public Business Marketplace''' press enter on "Select a business to work for". Delete the "Enter ID" text and enter the ID of the business you want to work for.
#You're all set! Now you can simply continue doing the freight/fuel/vehicle dropoffs that you loaded up earlier as usual, but now you will get a bonus amount of money that the business owner set with every drop off, until the order of that business is completed.
===How to cancel an order?===
*If you selected an order and you don't want to continue it, head to '''Company Information - View Public Business Market Place''' and then "Select a business to work for" and enter the ID 0.
