Way to go! That is absolutely the correct answer and the correct action! Not all cops are good and there are bad ones! Even hubby agrees with purgoose! :D Hubby even suggested to me that a recorder for some of these DOT officers might just be the thing. We absolutely cannot believe their...

Amonger, my husband left the department 5 years ago. He still talks almost daily to his friends in the department. Including childhood friends that are currently Chicago police officers today. He was an officer for a long time to include patrol officer, narcotics and prostitution detective, and...

Well, I did it! I went and bought a second one. This time I got the round cookie one. OMG I am c o o k i n g! :eek:

HAHAHA BigCat :D I thought about going out and getting a van or two also since they are relatively cheap and we could just buy it outright! They talked me out of it to so now I am back to procrastinating on the straight truck! lol :p

OMG Roflmao This thread is toooooooo much! lol :D

Yeah, now this one I do believe! I can't understand how these DOT officers get away with the crap they do! Even my husband says he hopes he never sees a driver giving a DOT officer the old slug-a-feist because he doesn't know if he would stop and help the officer or wave when he went past with a...

ROFLMAO Porky can't do this it constitutes a search! Can say no and there is nothing porky can do because this is just an infraction so therefore porky can't even get a warrant. The only way the officer can do anything is if he actually saw you doing the infraction and then he doesn't need to...

Sorry Preacher Rich but having been married to a retired 23 year veteren police officer (during the entire 23 years of his career) I would wager this did not happen! lol I think you need to be more cautious about who you are befreinding! Unless given permission to search, which an officer would...

Roflmao omg that is funny!:D

Awesome! Nice you have finally found eo lol. You sound like a great addition to eo! Glad to have you here! :D

Great I am really happy to hear they are still the great and honest company they have always been. That is one thing I always loved about es. Honesty and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. They were always a company drivers could depend on. I have given their number and recommended...

Yeah ok david spoken like a truck owner! You just keep telling drivers that. If you can get them to buy it more power to you! ROFLMAO

Comdata or fleet fuel card. Sure wouldn't be giving my credit card to anyone. That is asking for trouble. There are both bad owners and bad drivers. We have seen both out here. Protect yourself with a fuel card. It is not a sure thing the driver won't figure a way to steal from you but at least...

If that is the case I am coming across wrong. I am not un-happy with the job. I actually like the job, but , yes I also miss my home. That is not saying I want to be home just that I do miss it. I love this job. What I don't like is truck owners that begrudge drivers the money we earn or...

Exactly Dave, if I am driving and it is blowing snow and the roads are covered in ice, I hit a patch of ice and go into a skid ending in the ditch, by law, I am at fault because I lost control of the vehicle, therefore the deductible is mine to pay. I don't disagree with the paying the...

So then your drivers are employees and not independent contractors? As an independent contractor it is my choice how long I stay out. Is this not correct? It doesn't matter how much home time one has, the bottom line is this is a different life style from any other. It has it's pro's and...

That is true Greg, but if you want quality drivers that take care of the truck and take responsiblity, then as an owner you have to be fair and not try to pennyanany drivers and begrudge them their share of the linehaul or cheat them. If you do (not you personally, but speaking in general) then...

Your right Davekc! I will be in the right profession when we OWN our own truck! Just get tired of the way some truck owners begrudge drivers the money they earn! After 2 bad truck owners not much patience on the subject! Everyone that owns a fleet needs to have to drive one of their trucks for...

ROFLMAO uhhhh Jenny, that just looks like too much work for me. Course Sally Ann is probably salivating about now looking at those recipes. Bet she is already trying one out. The ladys a regular little Susie homemaker! lol Me I like this little 15.00 brownie maker. It is really simple and quick...

Hmmm why do we drivers deserve the money we make? ? ? Well, lets see what your investment would be worth without us drivers! Drivers are the ones doing all the work not the "invester"! Drivers are the ones out here 24/7 without the luxury of going home for weeks and months at a time! Drivers...
