    April 2020 Fools & Follies

    Don't break your habit! It's so easy to get lost in the drive, especially with no clutch. The reason I'm off the road is because I drove for long stretches without breaks, and got blood clots because of it. First time it killed a small part of my lung, second time my lungs were filled with...

    Good luck to you and Diane, Phil. I hope the end of this sees you with more business.

    The State of Freight Today (Coronavirus Effects)?

    Not to make this political, but I'd like to see in his Safer at Home order the part where Congress and the President suspended the 14th Amendment's right to travel. I suspect the governors are pushing their "rule of man," and worrying about the "rule of law" later.

    No, UAW is "demanding" a two week shut down.

    Coronavirus disrupts freight, price of oil; U.S. impacts could be ‘substantial’

    Helped? I guess, if you call meddling helping. What they've done is to make sure that the medicine will be harder to swallow.

    Yours isn't the only place I've heard of it. I wouldn't put Russia down and out, that's all.

    I don't know how people think that Saudi isn't oil dependent. They couldn't hang with us a couple of years ago when they tried that crap.

    Coronavirus disrupts freight, price of oil; U.S. impacts could be ‘substantial’

    The virus may have a small part to play, but China and Europe were in a recession before this started. We've been on the brink for the last year; and would've been pushed over the edge if not for the Fed's razzle dazzle hocus pocus.

    What is it with people not wanting to do a reset? I swear there are some who would rather drive 4 than get all of their hours back. To me, hours are hours. If you enjoy running hard, do resets. If you can survive on 8 hours/day, then run recaps. Both have the same brick wall, so neither is more...

    2019 Expediting Results are in

    It's good that someone is showing actual numbers here. It's been like pulling teeth as long as I can remember.

    second chance

    I stopped taking thc oil (tears) in April, and went back to work in October. I wanted to make sure I had enough time to get it completely out of my system, just in case they did a hair follicle test. You have to cover your arse. Excuses like "everybody else does it" doesn't cut it. Do your own...

    Hierarchy of Rationality

    I wouldn't call his statement conspiracy at all. You see a lot more sitting in the seat of the big truck. Hearing horror stories and such, it's not hard to see that most, if not all, of the players in the OP are culpable at taking down the owner operator, tho that is not the intent of a few of...

    FRESH START FEBRUARY

    It took me awhile to find a company that would either let me relearn on the fly (20yrs since I last drove a t/t) with minimal training, or a company that would not mind paying for a refresher course (wasn't going full-blown school again). Well, PTL wasn't into paying for a refresher, altho they...

    FRESH START FEBRUARY

    For certain companies who are filled with steering wheel holders who need to be burped by a dispatcher before bedtime.

    FRESH START FEBRUARY

    Did you do your research on Schneider? Just watch your back. The drivers are a bunch of snitches in competition to see how many other drivers they can get fired. And talking on ANY kind of phone, hands-free or not, is grounds for dismissal. Micromanaging is for children, not adults who are in...
