    does your carrier have to pay for the load offered

    RE: does your carrier have to pay for the load off I know what you're saying, Grog. It gets to the point where you don't want to nitpick about this HUNDRED DOLLARS or that HUNDRED DOLLARS. "Would you rather sit and make nothing?" No, dear... I'd rather have your head on a pike. But that ain't...

    U.S. doing better.

    157k vs 140k? It's because TA bought Petro and they'll need to staff all those new Burger Kings. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    From what I understand with black death... they purge the system, refill, purge, refill, purge... until they get no more shavings. It also means replacing several parts that the shavings will be embedded in, and parts that already started breaking down due to the shavings, such as the...

    EO Graduate 2

    You're right. There is no pick of the litter in expediting. First on the board usually means first load available gets offered to you, whether it's a 30 mi run or an 800 (unless you're solo). Like I said in another thread, every company has their glitches. All depends on which ones you can...

    more problems

    Grog... I posted something awhile back about "black death" in the a/c system. It's when parts start breaking down and leave metal shavings in the lines. The system will never be up to snuff until they totally flush the system (sometimes 3 or 4 times) to get the shavings out. Do you think that...

    Vet May Lose 'Honorable' Status Over Protest

    But I doubt anyone would really raise a fuss if you used cammies to go hunting in. It's all about the message; and his message left a bad taste in the mouths of some very high up ppl. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Speaking of T/Stops Petro Truck Stops Sold to TA

    RE: Speaking of T/Stops Petro Truck Stops Sold to Oh wonderful! Another big company sucked up by an even bigger company. Never frequented Petros that much, but they were better than TAs for the most part. All I can say is "Two Whopper Mondays, anyone?" -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    drug and alcohol testing

    Anyone who is "worried" about taking a drug test should find a different line of work. This isn't professional sports where you might get a suspension and a slap on the wrist. It's basically a one-and-done deal. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Vet May Lose 'Honorable' Status Over Protest

    But he is still on IRR. That's Inactive Ready Reserve. They tell you keep your nose clean cause you're still subject to the UCMJ. When I finished my IRR status, I recieved a letter basically stating that I had no further obligation to the military. This guy sounds like a trouble maker, so I...

    Loads Canceling???

    Try having two loads back to back cancelling while at the dock. Or better yet, cancelling after you've picked up. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Give me Water I have no Bread

    Babs, you hit it! Everyone can cut their costs only so far. Baloney sandwiches everyday only saves so much. You can tweek your truck all you want, but there's a point where it stops raising your MPG and just takes money out of your wallet. Surcharge doesn't help when you have to dh from the west...

    Check Out This Truck

    Speak of the devil, Phil. An identical truck (graphics are different) is in the teams wanted section of the classifieds. Lotsa toys and gadgets and such. Maybe trying to compete with yours? ;) Nevermind that last sentence. I just realized the one in the ad was White Glove. -Vampire Super...

    Check Out This Truck

    Sickdog... what would you charge for something like those flames in vinyl and airbrush? I'm kinda scared of vinyl as it seems to break up after a couple of years; and I want a design that lasts the life of the truck. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!
