Well obviously I got a little too froggy with my keyboard. :P Thanks for pointing out that error. I did mean to say that the driver should not be impaired when driving any vehicle. I sure hope that I did not any other critical mistakes.

Sorry to jump into this a little late, but this subject is right up my alley so to say. Having been a nurse for over 15 years and a paramedic for 9, I believe I can wade in here. :) The long and the short of the answer is this, The driver must not operate a vehicle in an non-impaired manner...

RE: Diesel price versus cost, or whose $20 is that Leo, I am not in a unit yet, I am merely a wannabee waiting on the stars to allign. But I get the picture a little better now. Thanks!

RE: Diesel price versus cost, or whose $20 is that CLEAR AS MUD HE SAID IT! Now, how do these here Gestapos know who I is, and where do they get their pretty little numbers to charge me? I give up this info? Yeah right! I have not see a log book that says, how many miles I traveled ina...

RE: Diesel price versus cost, or whose $20 is that OK, so I am lost totally! I have to pay taxes on the gas I use in addition to the taxes already added into the pump price? When and where do I pay this? And how come this never comes into the discussion of figuring if a run is worth taking...

The cost of fuel in Europe and other markets has always been much higher than ours, so I don't believe that they answer will come from their. I think the answer will be the next wave of careers in America, much like the technology industry was for the 90's. I think we will see companies that...

Hi ya all, Well, as I alluded to in another post, my son is being discharged from the Army, a wee bit ahead of time, but not soon enough for me. He is getting out because his knee's are not holding him up right. So, I know I qualify, but I am wondering about him. He will be 23 in...

Rich, I appreciate the offer, but right now I am waiting on my son's discharge from the Army, and then I am going to see if he is interested in teamining with me. If he is interested, then I will be getting ahold of you ASAP. Thanks again.

Very informative, and it has answered alot of my question. Thank you to all. I know that it is hard for me to stop thinking in terms of salary per hour and look at net salary over a month or quarterly long period. But, I guess I will just have to do it. Or come up with some way to make it...

OK, so the answer is "No matter how hard you ask the question, you still gotta learn the vast majority, of the job, on the fly.?." I guess I can do that and survive. So, now an answer I received earlier provokes another question. And I don't want to pry, but what is the bare minimum hourly...

Yes, I did speak with someone last year by phone, and he was a lot of help. Thanks again. The point I am trying to make with my post is that we are spending a lot of time on the same old subjects. There are "operational" topics that newbies like me need to learn also. Yes, there are...

Thanks for the info, but the reference to Margaret was from a Ray Stevens song. You have to be that old to know it.

Hi, its me again Margaret, O.K. so, alot of time is spent here going on about smart business planning. And lets not believe for a second that, that is not important. It is. But here is what I think I need to know now. What does a qualcom message actually look like? What does it...

Cool, I kinda thought maybe they were home for the weekend. I thought I had seen the vehicle there at least twice before. But then again, I was'nt sure if they had a dedicated route to here? Anyway, tell they I said howdy, and would love to hear from them directly about their experience as...

Hi there Tristate 473, saw your truck in Holiday FL, and wanted to say hi. I assume you were sleeping, so no pounding on the door, LOL. Anyway, just a howdy!
