    Meet me in St. Louis or

    You know Leo there is a lot of merit in what you said. Perhaps a board could be established that updates every midnight and EO Members could post their location for that day. Beats sitting around Walmart.

    Good Health on the road?

    Good Health on the road?

    I carry a fold up Bicycle made by the Dahon Company . I keep it in the box,when I am at a mall or Supercenter I get it out, assemble it,20 seconds, and chug around the perimiter. Cost about $150 but well worth,I am determined not to be one of those guys that keels over at 55 years old.

    Dock Height

    Way to go Joe,happy to see you doing Expediting work.I think the docks you mentioned were on the low side,if there is a standard dock height I am unaware of it but don,t let shippers and receivers sway you.All they care about is getting the truck loaded and unloaded. Did you have any insurnce...

    Years ago you could have a sleeper built into the front of the box as long as you had acsses from the cab.However the DOT Rule then was that the rear wall of the sleeper had to withstand a 6,000 pound impact. Don't know if this rule is still valid.Roberts had a female driver killed in an...
