I THINK A COUPLE GOOD CHANGES WOULD BE THAT THE DRIVER GETS 100% OF DETENTION TIME. ITS OUR FUEL BURNING WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO UNLOAD OR LOAD. ITS OUR ENERGY WALKING THRU WAREHOUSES LOOKING FOR THAT SPECIAL SOMEBODY THAT ONLY HE/SHE CAN UNLOAD THE FREIGHT, ONLY TO FIND OUT HE WONT BE IN UNTIL...

Business is great, just like it was the latter part of last year after we made "the switch". By the way, your comment to barbara of being GUTLESS for not saying who she worked for in another post was ignorant and uncalled for. But then again, its a free forum.

Angel, I HAVE A SPRINT CELL PHONE SO I PURCHASED A USB CABLE ON EBAY FOR $65. I CAN CONNECT ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, WITH UNLIMITED INTERNET. I PAY $90 FOR 2000 ANYTIME MINS, UNLIMITED NIGHT AND WEEKEND, AND UNLIMITED INTERNET. I KNOW THEY SELL THOSE CONNECTION CARDS FOR OUTRAGEOUS PRICES BUT IM NOT...

HEY DOWNEASTER...LIKE I SAID IN THE OTHER POST..WE LIVE IN ROCKY POINT, AND WE ARE DELIVERING IN NC MORE THAN WE CAN AFFORD TO GO HOME. WE SEEM TO DELIVER ALOT AROUND RALEIGH, BURLINGTON, WINSTON-SALEM, CONCORD-KANNAPOLIS. WE DRIVE FOR CON-WAY NOW AND ARE VERY HAPPY THERE. TAKE CARE.

I HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT DRIVE AWAY/TOW AWAY..BUT I CAN SHOW U A TRUCK AND TELL YOU ABOUT EXPEDITING. I LIVE IN ROCKY POINT, NC, JUST NORTH OF WILMINGTON. WE COULD MEET HALFWAY SOMETIME OR IF YOU PLAN ON BEING DOWN MY WAY FOR SIGHTSEEING OR ANYTHING, YOU COULD STOP IN. LET ME KNOW.

YES, THE 7-SPEED IS JUNK. I BOUGHT MY TRUCK, A 99 FL70 IN DECEMBER 1999. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT I WAS BUYING. IT WAS MY FIRST TRUCK PURCHASE. ANY WAY, OCTOBER OF 2000 IT HAD TO BE REBUILT IN MILWAUKEE, STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THANK GOD, REBUILT MAY 2001 AGAIN, AND TOTALLY DEAD MAY 2002. HAD TO BUY...

OK, i finally found it in the shopping section (figured the wife would have found that one first..lol) A little surprising to see that 14% of the d units a t tri-state are making $200,000 plus a year. Yet all the complaining about them on here. Hmmmm

What is all this talk about driver survey? I must have missed something or dont know where to go to find it. Any help? Thanks

Geo, i have not heard about this at all, but im very interested. I went to bulls eye media and didnt see anything about advertising on trucks. Do you have any more info?

Regarding taking off decals.....I've only changed companies once, but i've tried all the adhesive removers out there. The best one out there is GOOF OFF...it puts a whoopin on GOO GONE and all the others. Much less elbow grease is needed and also much faster. (just really stinky, thats all). It...

By the way, you were asking that we be more PROFESSIONAL. I hope that when you leave a customer and they say "have a good day" or "thank you", you dont turn around and say "OUT" like you do in here. Thats not very professional...dont you know that Mr. Professional? Must have to forgot to read...

WHY DONT YOU TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR OWN ADVICE FROM ANOTHER POST. REMEMBER YOU TELLING SOMEONE ELSE IF THEY DIDNT LIKE IT OUT HERE, THEN LEAVE? WELL, IF YOU DONT LIKE PEOPLE DISPLAYING THINGS ON THEIR TRUCK, HAVING DECORATIONS, OR ANYTHING ELSE, THEN QUIT!! GO FIND A JOB WHERE EVERYONE IS IN...

RE: Morg Mama! Not really Larry....I'm buried with work. ;-) I'm DEAD tired all the time.

RE: RE%253A I'm glad you and so many other enjoyed it. So now if you see it on the road, make sure you holler on the radio to your favorite future undertaker. LOL

I used to have a NOKIA with an external antenna that magnet mounted on truck, ran wire inside and plugged into back of phone. Didn't really see much difference.

RE: Sorry..forgot something regarding the 24 "penalty" for going home. When we (my wife and I) were there , the "penalty" was 33 hours. It did not matter if you were going home for a death in the family, needed an inspection, or just wanted to go. Every drive home was UNauthorized, UNpaid, and...

RE: Action... you really don't have to say what company you are working for. Any current or ex-Fedex C.C. driver(s) can relate to you and is in the same boat with you regarding the "crow fly" miles, unauthorized layovers, and giving those multi-million dollar companies a $200 "break" on a...
