I voted for Load 1 because those trailers look good. Still think the logo could use some sparkle, though. ;)

That was some 'vacation'! For people who are used to being self sufficient, there's nothing worse than being 'disabled', even temporarily. Add in the nosocomial [hospital acquired] infection, and the misery index is waaaay up there, I'm sure. It was good that you had a friend nearby, to help...

It's a beautiful thing that you're doing - thank you. And thank you, John Elliot, for making it happen.

[QUOTE=layoutshooter;655630 I will not go into the rest of your post, you obviously have little background in this. The rest is best left unsaid as it could be construed as being degrading to you and I don't want to play that game. There is a "name" for the syndrome you are displaying here...

You could call Don Bentz [Bolt Custom Sleepers, Fort Wayne, In] and see if he'll give you some numbers for a do it yourself job, [he'll naturally want you to let him do it, though], because he's a nice guy. If that doesn't get you anywhere, it's the same system that's been used in campers for...

Sad but true. Perhaps the DOT cert ought to include a psyche eval, because people who can be so easily [and endlessly] entertained by a man wearing [OMG!] shorts with [gasp!] flowers on them are at least half a bubble off level. Those of us who work with them already knew that, lol.

[QUOTE=LDB;655784 And yeah, he very well may be an abortion advocate as well as an Obama voter if his words and actions in this circumstance are accurate indicators of who he is. He's probably anti gun and pro Communist too! I wouldn't be surprised if he kicks puppies - he looks that mean &...

Nowhere did I say that ONLY [you really are too fond of caps!] the ideas of Deming [one 'm', not two] could have changed 'this' [whatever 'this' is], and management is ONLY to blame, because nothing happens until and unless they permit it.

It's not fuel, it's electricity, which businesses give away all the time. If he were somewhere [like a hotel lobby, conference center, airport] where he could recharge a cellphone, laptop, electric razor, why couldn't he plug in his car too? Answer: because he plugged it in outside, which is...

I have the samr complaint: the doctor who knows me and my history doesn't do the DOT. Except I understand that is the doctor's choice, not the government's fault - a distinction you don't seem to get. If the doctors choose to skip the certification, place the blame where it belongs, please.

When the weather outside is frightful, the only judgement that matters is the driver's. Use it responsibly, and don't delegate it to anyone else [such as a dispatcher in an office hundreds of miles away.] If you don't feel safe to drive, park it until you do. How hard is that? ;)

It's different because of the perception: businesses [restaurants, conference centers, hotels] and public facilities [airports, libraries] have long offered free wifi and electrical outlets to the customers. Granted, the electrical outlets are intended for small electronics, like cellphones &...

Cultural differences played a role [in the execs' reception of Deming, and even more in the lack of friction between labor & management], but that does nothing whatsoever to explain how Japan changed their reputation for cheap products [basically throwaways] to a reputation for reliable quality...

What a nice idea! As the vid showed, it doesn't cost much, so why not? At least they can [literally] see their donation being used as intended, which is more than you can say for many 'charitable' organizations.

You know what scares the pants off me? People who don't know what they're talking about, and can't be bothered to learn. Federal approval is the same thing as having your truck approved by the carrier: nothing sinister in it at all - just CYA, as per usual. "Total control of your health care"...

I don't know, Zorry, I think the exam is like our pretrips: if a problem occurs that could have been avoided by a proper exam, and the authorities can prove it wasn't done, there will be major liability for the examiner. Doctors understand potential liability better than insurance agents, I bet...

It's going to make money for some, and cost money for us. I understand the reason [drivers using forged certs], but think a better approach would be to beef up the penalties significantly for the cheating drivers.

I can't believe none of you geezers picked this one: Gayla Peevey-I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas On The Ed Sullivan Show - YouTube Ed Sullivan was wrong, hahaha.;)
