You can always be there for other drivers by being an encouragement. Not that they will always appreciate it. You can help others in whatever you do, but if you whole heart isn't in expediting chances are you will grow to hate it. I would defianantly think about driving for a fleet owner before...

fastman, I have more than you and I'm a 2 star poster:P

I wish they would put on these confrences in Memphis,TN.

When I was running a straight solo I did good with TranStewart. I was getting 40% of what the truck made and I was bringing in about 800 a week. I would do the math to figure up the full 100% but I'd most likely get it wrong. They are set up for mainly solos although they do run teams. I think...

I accidently rated myself when I first started posting, and it wouldn't let me erase it.

Rich, Thanks for the info. Our medicines aren't automaticly sent out. I sure wish they were. Maybe I need to talk to the powers that be and see if that model is feasiable for us here. By the way where do you go to the VA at?

Did you know that most VA pharamcies will not refill persriptions anymore? This means you have no choice but to call in and order it to come through the mail. This takes 7-10 days. So what happens if it doesn't come in in time? You can't order your refill very much earlier than you need it. You...

I hooked you up. I showed my arse a few times and got negative ratings. That's life. I didn't lose any sleep over it, but it did help me to think before I type.

what are they gonna do with all the inmates when they layoff the correctional officers? yall should do like we do and put the inmates to work cleaning up beside the roads, and they don't draw a check. You just have to provide them with room and board. Another program is where the state "leases"...

They make some stuff in an aerosol can called decal remover. It does a good job. Just spray it on the decal and take a plastic putty knife and everything comes off. If its been on there awhile you might have to spray a little directly on the glue after the decal is off.

fritzy, If you ask me you made the right choice. This can be a really fun job, but it takes some time to work your why in. Just remember if it sounds to good to be true it probobly is.

Master lock makes a lock that is like a pin and the pin goes through the hole and there is a little box that lock on the pin. If you could find one of those you could drill a small hole in the load lock then it couldn't be taken down without you there. So they would have no choice but to let you...

what you need to do if you want to stay in this biz in my mind is this... 1. Quit working were you're now immediatley. If they try to say it's legal, keep walking. Chances are they know it will all be one you and do not care. 2. Go to truck driving school. Learn all the rules and ins and...

Ft. Wayne, You giving up on expediting altogether? I was just curious what you were gonna be doing after leaving panther. Like I've said before I had 2 main grips with Panther. Number 1 the dispatchers talk to you any kind of way. They have no respect, but they expect to get it. Guess what...

When I was a farm hand we would park our tractors in a field where we could talk and eat on lunch break. This one old guy was always eating hot meals in the field. I asked him about it and he showed me the trick on the John Deere and the Petes we had. After that I figured it out myself. This guy...

Did you see any mule deer? I was in Thermopolis,Wy the week after thanksgiving last year and they were all over the place. They were pretty big compared to the white tail we have here in Arkansas. They racks weren't much to look at but thier bodies were stocky. Umm, more meat.

maybe it was myshack,yourshack and a bungalow.

I thought the three in the bible were, myshack,yourshack, and a old billy goat. :P Seriously though, I think padwrap is mainly used for stuff like electronics and expensive fragile furniture like antiques and what not.

When I was at Panther a couple of years ago in a straight truck I thought the same thing about them having more trucks than frieght, and running 2 orientations a week. Didn't make much sense. By the way the dispatchers told me several times at that Panther doesn't look for loads they just wait...

We'd have t change the law in Arkansas before we could hang someone. As it stands now it's a felony to tie or posess a hangman's noose. Just thought I'd let ya'll in on some info you'll most likely never use again. I love those interesting tidbits they don't teach you in school.
