Do you fly your Freighter differently than a passenger Aircraft ?

To clarify my question, I fly passenger Aircraft only and attempt to give them the smoothest rise possible, ease gently into turns, etc, etc.


I usually make up for this with my landings.


I am not, for a moment implying that those Pilots flying freight are any less careful operationally, what I wonder is if there might be a tendency to be less concerned about turbulence or handling the Aircraft a little more aggressively ?


Is there ever an attitude of 'they're only boxes' ?!
