    Questions..

    Yes, I do online classes. The degrees can be just as good as attending, or they may not be. You have to do your homework, and make sure it is an accredited college, and also make sure that the degree won't say online. A lot of the top schools are offering online classes now, because people have...

    Ford van electrical/alternator/starter problems

    I think everyone has pretty much said everything that it could be. Obviously get the alternator checked since they are notorious for problems. This is the time of year that any built up on the terminals or the connectors themselves can make the batteries not get charged. Also, check the...

    Questions..

    Yeah, that is what I was planning on doing anyway. I figured that I would find out what I was good at when I went for my associates degree, and then do a double major in the top two areas that I did well in. I am taking 12 weeks off to regain my edge that I lost while having a lot on my plate...

    How are teams dividing the hours?

    That is how we do it as well, 10 on 10 off, makes it easier for both of us, and its not as tiring.

    Questions..

    Eh, I wiggled my way through the SWOT analysis. It is amazing how ridiculous some of these classes can be. As far as my major goes, I graduated last week with an associates degree in criminal justice. I am thinking about switching it up a little bit for my bachelors degree though. I have...

    give to me straight can it be done w/out going crazy

    It's not nerve-wracking at all. I learned how to drive on an old Brigadier dump truck. It had the air brakes, and it had the longer dump body on it, so it worked, and that is what I took my test in. lol. I also used the free tests that are available on the website. So, buckle down, and study...

    Questions..

    Recovering my stuff

    As soon as someone keeps something that they KNOW does not belong to them it is theft. If he is keeping your belongings from you, knowing that they are yours it is theft. It is a latin term called Men Rea which means Guilty Mind. If he had the belongings, and did not know they were yours, that...

    What do you for personal safety?

    I have never thought about it. I usually park near lighs, and grass I carry a 65 pound pit bull with me wherever I go. He is the biggest baby in the world, but no one else needs to know that. Obviously, I can't bring him inside with me. So usually, I go in during daylight, and once it gets...

    There was a passing today

    In my eyes, it was more than just a passing, it was a great loss to all that knew him. I refuse to ever pick up the qualcomm again. I was under load, got the fuel surcharge for the week, and it beeped. Hmmm? I read that, and just about fell out of my seat. Today, Express-1 lost a safety...

    "Could you move your truck so I can park?"

    My fiance and I were parked in idle air. We were nosed in, and had a fellow expeditor next to us. Now, my fiance and I were out of the truck. We had a small conversion van pulled up to our back bumper. He had bbq, I was hungry, etc. So, anyway, the woman in the straight truck next to us gets...

    New York ideas please.

    I live in Connecticut. My suggestion for the New York runs, is either go to the Vince Lombardi, or the Pilot in Connecticut. Runs are actually really decent coming out of the area. Been as far as Laredo, Tx. And, Russellville, Ar

    Anyone moving

    Picked up a few loads out of Michigan, and brought them to Kentucky. Currently sitting at the Pilot in Morton's Gap Kentucky. Where the signs on the fuel island say "Please pull FOWARD after fueling." Haha. Can't get over it.

    An expediters prayer

    Here we sit, we wait and wait. Can the qc really beep this late? All these expeditors lined up in a row. Not a load to run, not a seed to sow. How many times can I clean this truck? This situation is all amuck. Been sleeping for five days. This waiting never pays. This seems like...

    Anyone moving

    Had a load picking up at 7 pm last night in Pennsylvania, going to Michigan. Made it to I80, and that was as far as that went. We couldn't make it up the hill, 18 wheelers couldn't make it up the hill, the plows couldn't even make it. So, we had to stop for awhile, and waited to move on. Late...
