    Bad past!!!!!!!!

    Its gotten tougher to get on with most carriers even if you dont have a criminal record. Most carriers in my area will not hire you if you have had more than 4 jobs in a 6 year period. I also noticed a very thin line with the age discrimination law We have people calling our office all the time...

    Panther ii Has 500 Trucks Refusing To Work?

    Okay I couldn't stand it any longer, I was very amused by the earlier comment regarding someone's post on this thread stating matter of factly that "he never worked for P-2 so he doesn't know anything about them". Which is almost like saying your not a doctor so you dont know what your kidneys...

    Panther ii Has 500 Trucks Refusing To Work?

    This reminds me of that old movie Invasion Of the Body Snatchers where the people got replaced by space aliens and didnt even know it except the one guy at the end. Perhaps with a little "children of the corn" thrown in. dukesadog

    RE: Got Ripped off and do not want the same to hap New Orleans? I have some choice words for New Orleans, Canadians probably wouldnt allow the intense corruption that exists there to exist at all. In 1996 my wife and I were in New Orleans on a Cruise, as part of the deal we had to go sit...
