Lawrence, I care about the freight too - but ultimately, I care even more that our free market be allowed to work as designed, and am sick of seeing incompetence rewarded so generously. In the long run, losing the Big Three will (hopefully) make America a better place, IMO. The "foreign"...

Their arrogant, jaw dropping gall is equal to the man who kills his wife, then asks the judge to set him free, so his children don't become orphans! That a company in such deep financial distress continues to have luxury jets, and pay incompetent CEOs multibillion dollar 'bonuses' says they...

The top three numbers on your speed dial are all dispatch. You check the monitor to see if your shower is ready before realizing you're standing in your living room. The french fry alarm beeps in Burger King & you run out to check your QC. (That last one was Lawrence's, and much too funny to be...

Better to use olive oil, I'd think. Extra virgin is best, according to Terry.....(sounds like a guy thing, lol) We better cut this stuff out, before we get into trouble here - you guys are a bad influence! (Always my favorite kind, though):D

Dropcloths and plastic sheeting are not my idea of a good time, so far - but maybe I'm doing it wrong.....(I'm not a blonde anymore, but I was when I was little, and sometimes I relapse, ya know?);)

You get woken up by a noise that you can't quite figure out - sounds like an inverter squealing, but not, sounds like it's coming from outside the truck, but what? Where? And why won't it STOP? It's 0600 *%*$%! It's COLD OUTSIDE IN CONNECTICUT - I DON'T WANNA INVESTIGATE STRANGE NOISES!! Ok...

Yes, Pjjjjjjjjjjj, great minds DO think alike, and a couple years ago, I wanted something to identify me as an EO junkie (term coined by Mr Goodtude), so I created some t shirts of my own. I used the computer to 'enhance' my avatar, placed the EO logo underneath (with LM's permission), and...

Lawrence might cough up some EO bumperstickers if you sweet talk him ;) but it won't be much help in the driver's lounge.....

Turtle looks nothing like Hannibal Lector, or Anthony Hopkins, either - but I could sure see all kinds of rude & arrogant people tied to his wheel wells, lol. (And I'd enjoy it, too!):D

Mary, welcome to EO! There are lots of folks here to help, but the questions you asked are so broad and encompass so much info, they'd take a looong time to answer, ok? But the answers are already here, somewhere, you just have to keep looking - and any you don't find, we'll try to come up with...

Jeez, Wingnut, if it's further than tomorrow, I don't have a clue! I'd like to spend it at my daughter's in Fla, as both my girls will be there, but so far, it's just wishful thinking. I made it home for Thanksgiving last year, then spent Christmas on the road, so anything is possible. (Which...

I haven't commented because I have no experience with FedEx - but the "Disney management philosophy" sounds to me like the dumbest, most counterproductive idea I've heard in a long time. And unity seems to be the goal already, at least in the sense that some things could be done better than they...

Between DHallToyo's fine-print disclaimer ("I accept no liability for the content of this post"?!) and the Col's non-sequiter, doesn't look like much help, eh? Not that I can offer much more, except the usual: read at least a year in Newbie's and General Forums, talk to all the real life...

It's not "just a job" - it's an addiction! (But it sure pays better than snorting coke. Well, most weeks, anyway.) ;)

Could we bring back the Fuzzy Cuddly Bunnies Forum now? :rolleyes:

Cool! I have just installed the trial version of Carbonite, and will no doubt continue with it - it seems the easiest way to ensure that I don't lose everything if the laptop has a major malfunction. I'm glad to hear that Highway Star's lasted 5 yrs, but I feel better now, in case mine doesn't...

You are absolutely correct, and I've no doubt that's what happened - it's the denial that it was ever posted and being told to "get your facts straight" that I find unacceptable. Most of us have posted things we thought better of later at some point, but I don't recall anyone ever denying that...

Danny's Big Rig Resort in Phoenix :)

David, I am submitting your name for the Seven Second Hero Award sponsored by the Rosemary Woods Institute. Good luck! I hope you win. I believe you can nominate someone only if the erasure, memory lapse and/or denial was to protect someone other than yourself, as the saintly Rosemary...

If it does give warning signs, what might they be?
