    I am p**sed off, literally!!!or maybe litterally!!!

    Exactly. You can take all the pictures in the world, make all the phone calls you want, and the only thing that will happen is, nothing will change. It might make you feel better, but that won't change a thing. If the problem was that big, that serious, the parking lots would be well lit and...

    I am p**sed off, literally!!!or maybe litterally!!!

    I find it objectionable, too. My goal is to get them to stop it. I just think there's a better way to do it than by going out of my way to get them into trouble. I know for a fact that I can waste my time a little more frivolously than by sitting around and practicing to become the fastest...

    This thread sponsored by The POET APU* *The Pissed Off Expedited Truckers Against Public Urination Some restrictions apply. Restrictions always apply. That's what restrictions do, they apply!

    The number one retirement spot for Canadians is Florida. Number two is Arizona. There's a reason for that.

    Seen it all ????

    Making that delivery to the nuclear sub, USS North Carolina, at the shipyard in Newport News was pretty neat, but probably the kewlest place I've ever delivered to was deep inside the mountain near Promontroy, Utah where Thiokol builds and refurbishes, among other things, the Shuttle's Solid...

    Panther Drivers what do you think?

    Well, it was explained to me that, before, where you were sitting on multiple boards, everybody on all of those boards were effectively lumped into a single FIFO board, anyway, and that with the new system those boards would be combined into a single board, thereby eliminating the need to be on...

    As gross and disgusting as public urination is, let's not once again overreact and work so hard at fake outrage and 'OMG! I'm soooo offended.' It's not like all of a sudden people have discovered that you can urinate in the great outdoors. I do find it a little hard to believe that someone...

    Panther Drivers what do you think?

    Yes, it does suck, but not because we can't be on two boards. If they would define the boards properly, based on common sense and where the freight comes out, Dallas and Ft Worth would be one board, not two, and there would be no need to be on more than one board at a time. But noooooooooo...

    Protect yourself online

    No, they're not. When you log on to a truck stop, motel, Panera Bread, wherever, you are logging on to their network, and those can be relatively easily spoofed. All you need to do is create an access point. Those types of connections are WiFi. The cell phone companies don't use WiFi, they use...

    speed traps

    The problem comes when you can't see them, because they're not there or because they are intentionally hidden or otherwise obscured. When you are driving along in a certain speed zone and there is a change in that speed limit up ahead, there is supposed to be a sign at least 500 feet before...

    Havard Man - So What?

    Both, actually. Bush got his history degree from Yale in 1968, and then got his master's degree in business administration from Harvard in 1975.

    I am p**sed off, literally!!!or maybe litterally!!!

    Well, you know one. Remember meeting me at the Expedite Expo? :D I had someone call in on me once, back with Con-Way. Safety called juuuust to make sure. The caller said I was driving erratically, barely able to keep the van on the road, followed me for more than an hour before calling in...

    When you see other drivers, you kind of know which ones are in the mood to talk and which ones aren't. The ones that aren't in the mood, it's not a good idea to confront them, gentle or otherwise. We all need our space out here. But, if you first start a conversation with the usual small talk...

    Canada Clearance?

    The controversy about going to Canada, for those without criminal records and can get in, that is, is because of the hassles involved that are out of your control. There's paperwork that your a broker has to deal with and you're at their mercy when things go wrong with it, even though you did...

    The Council was right there and available, and no one asked them for their input on the implementation of any of these changes. It's the luck of the draw and where you're at. I had 3 weeks there, in January, where I did way over 2000 miles a week, one week it was over 3000 miles. In the last...
