    Using Hair for a drug test

    Ditto! I also would rather they use my hair. It is really embarrassing to have to pee in a cup. Actually it is much better to use hair to weed out the druggies! A urine test tells what the donner has done over the past 7 to 30 days. A hair folicle tells what the donner has done over the...

    Looking for work in Metro Atlanta with my CARGO VAN

    Last time we were home (Calhoun GA) Ceva in Atlanta had a sign in front they needed cargo vans. Don't know if they have enough now but doesn't hurt to check. :) Also, I remember seeing a sign for drivers for the railways. All I know about it is you pick up their railway workers and take them...

    Sleeping in the top bunk

    Well, as for low overpasses, the driver should be watching for overpass height before trying to go under the overpass. Tis always the first thing I look for when going under a bridge, ANY BRIDGE ANYWHERE! So do you trust your Partner? :D As for rollovers, doesn't matter top or bottom, gonna...

    Udate on stupid mistake.

    LOL You are so right Morningstar! That should have been the first red flag. Just like I said, WE or I should say I was at fault not my carrier. They had absolutely nothing to do with it. Here is why we chose this truck owner and was very lax. Some other drivers (2 teams we know) recommended them...

    Introducing FinanceGuy

    This is a question I am curious about also. Previously we checked into buying a straight truck. We were asked if we could put 5000.00 to which we anwsered yes. We were then asked if we owned our home. We do own our home in Kansas outright with no mortgage. (We own our home in Kansas and rent a...

    Us and Express-1

    It is sad to see you go Maniac. I really think you are making a big mistake but you have to do what you have to do. Express-1 is the best expedite company out here. We personally will never leave them. The best thing that has happened to us was when our previous truck owner pulled his...

    slow.....

    You all have a very good point. Never would have thought of that. We, as drivers, are just trying to promote our company. Never would think of a '3rd' party contract. Doesn't make since to me. Looks like our prospect companies would want us to try to let our customers know they can count on us...

Would you scan the pro bill or bol in for the information or what paper is it you scan for it to get all this information. I can see scanning reciepts but not sure I am understanding how it would get...

    Naming Bad Fleet Owners

    :rolleyes: Ya want ta know what I think on this matter? Well probably not, but here goes anyway. Liability, as long as what is said is 100% true then there is no liability. If an owner knows what is said is true then the owner is not going to try to sue because they know it can be proved...

    Good Morning Everyone! Great Truck Owner!

    We are with a awesome new Truck owner for this past week. I am sooooo impressed. This guy has everything covered and prepares the driver for anything that could arise. Has an awesome contract (signed by both sides before starting) that is very well and plainly written. Fair to both sides. I...

    OOIDA Time for elections

    Well, guess I am a little on the slow side. I went to OOIDA once before after reading about it here on EO and started to sign myself and my husband up but once I started reading it I thought it was only for the drivers that owned a truck. Now that I know it is for ALL drivers we are signing up...
