    Cleaning wood cabinets in sleeper

    We have the sleeper made by AA Sleeper so we have those light wood cabinets. How do you clean the wood cabinets - the outside of the cabinets? What is a good cleaner that won't hurt the wood? I have used some strong all purpose cleaner on the cabinets and it will clean them but I think I...

    New Dispatch System is really bad

    I have a couple of thoughts on this discussion. First of all, I’m not thrilled with the “company line answer” given over and over either. We do have a couple of people on this site that certainly will always be “the company person.” But my experience with Linda is that she is not one of these...

    help better identify ourselves

    I love the hand signal idea! Maybe when everyone is at the Expo you all can come up with something perfect. We wear our company apparel so we the t-shirts or caps won't work for us. There must be some way to do this.

    Fed Ex 4 Star Awards

    We were one of the first time winners and really enjoyed getting to meet other drivers who are upbeat and positive and even still excited about driving after all these years. I wish we had some way of identifying the fellow EO Members at something like that.

    11 "Load Oportunity"

    Easy, not to be too negative but if you want a real discussion about the way your company is doing a certain something you should post it in the company forum so those drivers who experience the same problems (in the same company) will have an understanding of what you are commenting on. That...

    How to cook corn

    Fresh corn is now in all the stores. We recently found it at 4 ears for $1.00. What a great veggie to add to our meals while the corn is fresh! Here is how to cook corn in the truck: Buy it still in the husk - don't stand there and shuck it! Place two ears of corn in the microwave (still in...

    Wii Fit

    We found it at a Game Spot in VA and also at a WalMart in Thomasville, AL then all along that area in those little towns in AL they have the Wii and the Wii Fit. This is the most fun we have ever had exercising! Frank likes the boxing that comes with the Wii but he is also enjoying the skiing...

    Wii Fit

    We finally had a weekend to set up our Wii Fit. It is THE answer to exercise in the truck! It is the most awesome thing! We have a 96" sleeper and there is room to set up the Wii with no problem. The Wii Fit is all about balance and you stand on a balance board like a scale. It measures the...

    Life is just to short

    Broom, thankfully you are okay. A few minutes earlier and you could have been involved in that accident. You will probably never know it but that young girl will always remember a driver helped her and stayed with her and put her on a blanket. Sometimes just sitting quietly in a horrendous...

    Beware in Dallas(again)

    Well said Leo!! Oh, and by the way, these liberals who are redefining America are just as subject to the theft and criminal acts as the rest of us. I always wonder how a liberal judge would feel having those criminals living next door to his home!

    How are you doing with the Load Opps?

    How are you doing with the Load Opps now that we have had this going for a while? Actually our experience has been really good with this type of dispatch. We recently were in an area where we had three load opps come across CLink at once. We looked at all three and plugged them in our...

    navigation software

    Leo, here is the thing. It was my experience working for many, many years at a Helpdesk that users need a user friendly computer system when trying to learn something new. Many of these programs have so many bells and whistles that the average driver doesn't have time to go through it all...

    The creation of a monster?

    Cheri, I agree! Grrrr! I think EB has THE answer. Every single time they call or beep us we need to state something like, "I have to pull off the road every time you call or beep me and it is delaying the load. Perhaps you could back off and let me do my job." What do you think? Naw! Then...

    Not to offend Big Cats but...

    I guess my main concern was not so much the lack of dress code as the condition of the truck. Items attached with chains and bungy chords just doesn't seem very professional or safe.

    Not to offend Big Cats but...

    I would never deliberately offend anyone but I'm curious. Do the Panther elite drivers have company shirts? I'm trying to figure out this situation. We were picking up on a base and a Panther Elite "D" truck was right in front of us. The couple had on tee shirts - no indication they...
