While I don't doubt there are owners who withhold money while their drivers are out; more than likely, drivers who tell these stories have already spent their wad. This is an industry full of drivers and owners alike, who have traditionally had a lack of wisdom when it comes to their...

I don't need to hear bout that! :D Anyways...

KW... did this thread magically appear at the top of the list, or did you end up hitting 'last' instead of 'next'? Anytime 'guest' is a poster, the thread is OLD.

Yep Star, I hear ya. Miami still haunts me. :p

That's a tough situation to be in. On one end, you have an irresponsible friend. On the other, a fleet owner who both of you run for. I suggest you call your friend back up and warn her to stop spending the owner's money, or you'll have to let him know. Suggest to her to start paying for fuel...

No probs, Kyreax. I knew you were asked, tho don't know the purpose. Nearly everybody mentions when they see someone's truck they know. If someone doesn't want to be noticed, why would they post pictures of what they drive?

There are MANY instances throughout history that Muslims have shared land with, even ruled over, other religions, with no hostilities or oppression. In the case of Moor ruled Spain, there was even a flourishing of culture, architecture, art, etc. There, Christians, Jews, and Muslims lived in...

You'd have to ask Kyreax. I didn't see any. I'm just CMA.

I would rather see the Constitution party become the third party. More likely tho would be the Socialist party. Altho the Dems are so close to them, I doubt anyone could tell the difference.

Just so everyone reading now doesn't think I added my last post to bash the Ateam, Kyreax edited out that he saw their truck.

But they have RIBEYE!!! :D

Who? Ateam or the TripleT? :D

I was gonna mention Iron City. When I was stationed in NY, I would grab my Gunny some Iron City in Erie on my way back from leave in MI.

Hopefully he won't be a Bush extension. The fact that he hates earmarks tells me he'll be harder to let pork get past him. As far as Iran, I'm upset Bush didn't take them and Syria out when it was a popular notion. Even a good number of Iranians were hoping for that; and most likely, still are.

When in Dallas, I always head for the Denton TA. Yes, it's dusty. But they cut their own steaks! That is THE BEST truck stop restaurant I've ever been to. I don't mind choking down the dust if there's some steak to go with it. :)

I know some here don't agree with McC on the war. I personally don't like the guy. I stated I wouldn't vote for him. Then I heard something that raised my eyebrows... He has not taken a dollar in earmarks. It's a start...

Like Andrew Wilkow said today... Welcome to the Republican party, Geraldine Ferraro! The Dems and the media have been playing that game for MANY years: twisting Republicans' words to come across as the worst possible meaning. Now that there's a new darling in town, they're willing to throw...

Ok... let's get nitpicky here. Yes, this business is easy to learn. You have company babysitters, in most cases. You drive to point A, pick up, steer to point B, then ask the qc babysitter where you should go for layover. Easy as suckling from a teet. It's HARD to SUCCEED at this business...

I wonder if those numbers take into account the inflation, cause by the Fed's non-stop printing of all this new found wealth. $200 billion lately. Someone high up in the Fed doesn't remember the Carter years very well. Then again, who wants to?

I don't think anyone is condoning a union. We're talking about getting a fair price for the freight we haul. I think you'd agree with that. You told me once 15% was more than fair. With the customer paying $3-4 a lot of the time, I don't see anything fair about it. Hell no, chuck... er Fort...
