    Truck Stop Restaurants

    Re: Forget I bothered I don't think anyone said servers are lazy or don't have a brain although I'm sure we have all met our fair share that fit that description. The job itself requires no education though, not even a high school diploma. That doesn't mean they are all dumb but it is just a...

    Truck Stop Restaurants

    They all deserve a decent wage? No they don't, they deserve what the market says they are worth. A hospital could be run by doctors alone, you would just have to hire more doctors and medical bills would cost more. The nurses are used as assistants to help with some of the tasks that don't...

    The photo tickets have no points associated with them because it is actually a bill and not a real ticket. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Right but if you wanted more money because the rates were to low so other trucks ran those loads giving the carrier the same money do you think they care? Or if you get stuck sitting for another reason do they care? They have plenty of trucks to run those loads or just broker them out for easy...

    That's the great part about being with a small company, their income is tied to your wheels moving. Some of the bigger carriers don't care because they just make money off of people being signed on through their surcharges. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Does Your Dispatcher Speak English?

    So basically you could have cut this down and just said you don't understand the reality of why being able to communicate clearly in a factory is important. The reason, it's for safety and being able to work effectively. The second part could have been summed up as saying that you have a...

    Truck Stop Restaurants

    I never worked in a restaurant but I over tip because of some of my political beliefs. I feel I can do a much better job of getting my money in the hands of the working poor than the government can. I was able to help by leaving $20 when I was at a restaurant and some @$!# next to me left about...

    Truck Stop Restaurants

    The following is not an attack but it is brutal honesty. Have you considered the fact that you are doing a job that requires little to no skill? Basically you take orders and then transport food from the kitchen to a table. Do you really think that should pay enough to support a family? You have...

    Truck Stop Restaurants

    I am fully aware that waiters/waitresses make less than minimum wage because tips are supposed to count to make up the rest. Have you gone to your employer and stated the obvious, that their ridiculous mark up on food is causing people to tip less? Have you considered it might be you? Your post...

    Dac report

    You can over fill it a little which isn't a problem but if you go way over it can cause the oil to leak out of the fill hole and run down the rims which will then spray it all over. It will also look bad to a DOT officer. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Dac report

    I would never get moving without checking hub oil, you can kill someone if you lose your tires because of a blown wheel seal. When a wheel seal goes it doesn't necessarily become obvious right away as some will leak right into the drum and others only when they cool down. Sent from my SCH-I535...

    Big Truck I work on Hino trucks. I'll answer any questions I know the answers to.

    I would agree with you, I don't remember 255's being that much lower than the tall tires. I think they measured the entire diameter of the tire not realizing that it would only give them half of the difference. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Another Obama Smackdown from SCOTUS

    So you feel like the government should get involved in religion? They wrote a letter requesting that an executive order(keywords executive order) shouldn't force them to hire people that have a direct conflict with their beliefs. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Get what the ruling was about. No, not a chance it opens Pandora's box because the ruling was specific. Sent from my SCH-I535 using EO Forums mobile app

    Another Obama Smackdown from SCOTUS

    This statement isn't true. The population control in China was applied to Hans living in urban areas so the abortion issues in rural areas were in part economic. So again if they have jobs and can support more children they may not abort or they might give money to an orphanage that would save...
