He could have been getting fired.

A girl at the college was bragging yesterday about how well her "stock" in J.B. Hunt is doing. She said how much she made per share, but I forget. It was some type of excercise for her economics class.

What happens if the fleet owner gets mad at you at week 88? Do you get back your $43,500 and turn in the truck, keep the truck and continue to pay it off, or lose the truck and your money? Is the owner going to be taking anything off of the top? These are a couple of questions to consider and...

All this little strike is going to prove is how unoorganized the trucking industry is. I think it's great that someone is taking a stand. It also stinks that a lot more are to scared to do anything. The one guy that is supposedly setting this up is scared to be the spokesman. That should tell...

I don't know about Yuma, but I was stationed at 29 Palms, CA and it gets hot out there to.

It's been awhile since I've listened to the Bozo Show, but I used to tune in on my XM everyday. I recall him telling everyone to join OOIDA, and I did. I also recall him telling everyone you can't just leave it up to OOIDA to do everything we have to help by calling and writing. When my 100%...

Haven't heard either of those. If TMC shuts down I guess it will just make Maverick happy.

I don't know what you pay Steve and it's none of my business, but when I left the road I was getting paid for every mile and I wasn't about to run for less than .36 a mile plus my tarp pay or extra drop. Simple as that. I hear people telling O/Os to say no to cheap freight drivers need to say no...

When I was in high school I had the Wal-Mart in West Memphis forget to put oil back in the truck. Luckily I checked before leaving the praking lot. My famliy and I have been back since with no problem.

Anything that sends American G.I.s home in bodybags isn't going to be seen as a good thing. The difference between now and WW 1 and 2 is then the public supported the troops. Alot of people say they support the troops, but how many actually do? I bet the enemy gets a kick out of s sitting over...

This is a situation where if it was stuck in gear and you had a manual you could have just mashed in the clutch and started coasting then stopped. Is that the same tranny I've people talk about it will jump out of gear going up or down a grade? I know I heard someone say they had an auto and it...

We got a letter in the mail today that says my wife is cancer free. What a relief that was. Thank you for the thoughts and prayers. I really believe they helped.

Alot of people think if we leave the Middle East then the fighting just stops. No offense to anyone, but this isn't the Viet Cong who were trying to run Americans away. Al Queda will bring the fight to us if we leave. I heard a talk show host on the radio in New Orleans ask a caller one day if...

I like the pistol made on the model 1911 frame that's called XD. It comes in 40 caliber Smith and Wesson, and it has a few safety features that others don't have. Like it has a section on the back of the pistol grip that must be depressed for it to fire. It cost abotu 450 dollars.

Well Rev 1/3 of Arkansas counties are diaster areas. I'm assuming that's just state disater areas. I think we are going to be alright at the house. The river is high and rolling, but about 2 feet from the yard. If it would just hurry up and crest. It is expected to crest in about 4 hours, or 3...

We were under staffed with a Lt. and a Sgt plus 5 COs for a housing unit that had 7 barracks of 45 inmates. You had to do 5 shakedowns each per shift. Plus they annoy the crap out of you with stupid requests. We had one barracks file a greivance against us to get the a/c truned off because it...

I made a rookie mistake once and left my fuel cap on the fuel island. Had to replace. I picked one up at Peterbilt of Shrevport since it was a Pete and I couldn't find one any where else. 120 bucks for one. Not a good bargain I didn't have a lot of choices.

Sorry I'm a lil irratiabe here lately considering everything that is going n. Know what I mean. I'm sorry about the much worse by much better comment. One of my cousins just had to sale his truck and trailer. His wife cashed in her 401k and now they have nothing. He knew better from growing...

In Arkansas they have what is called Protective Custody or PC for short. It is basicly for inmates that have alot of enemies, not just child molesters. They are held in segregation for 23 hours a day. It what used to be called the hole. It not only helps the inmates, ,but it also helps the...

We made it to my mom's in West Memphis. I grabbed my DD-214 and our marriage liscense. I had to leave my pick up. It wouldn't start. We grabbed all of our clothes,my military uniforms, and all my guns. We also grabbed our school books. The Corps of Engineers have the flood gates wide open and...
