    New Hours of Service Regs

    :( :( :( I mentioned this fact several months ago when the new HOS regs were first posted, and got laughed off a couple 'big truck' forums. Noone believed my interpretation that the 14 hours were consecutive from the FIRST time you log on... like was said previously... if you log on for 30...

    A new chapter in my life......

    WOW! I'm sorry to hear that Wild Bill. It's amazing how some people can turn just like that. I went thru a similar thing with the last guy I drove for. Just out of the blue, he calls me, says because 2 others of his drivers screwed him over, he's getting rid of everyone, and selling his...

    Sorry

    Wannabe: Yes I WAS trying to encourage you..LOL... but I didn't mean for you to jump into a truck payment, if you're not financially ready, just was saying that if you really wanted to drive, you didn't have to wait until you got your OWN truck! Best of luck with whichever you choose!

    stuck in Memphis

    Guess I must have been lucky too.. Memphis was always one of my favorite places to deliver to.... I also never sat more than a day there... but... like another post said, maybe that's because FedExCC has the Memphis freight more than other companies. Memphis and Jackson both were alway good to...

    Bad Owners

    **sigh** I was gonna let this one slide, but I just couldn't.. sorry guys! Brandy... Sounds like you should have ironed out all the details BEFORE you signed on as to what home time was. That's why you get it in writing.... you should have known 6 weeks ago what his policy was, and what he...

    false postive

As a condition of employment, you sign an agreement to accepting random drug testing as required. Even when I worked at a local pizza place for a while, years ago, they had it in...
