    Cheap Freight

    Maybe it isn't so much the questions ATeam asks, though I'm still scratching my head over the relevance of "where else are you asking for help?", but the interrogatory tone. It doesn't sound as if help is the motive for asking. If I'm wrong, I apologize, but I sense an animosity in the...

    Panther Driver Council Time to make your Vote

    That's a very good point - the internet presents new & creative ways to address issues, and is especially valuable in the area of communication. It would, however, not be much help to those who don't get on the "information highway", for whatever reason.

    Hey is this all true? Iraq really coming around?

    RE: Hey is this all true? Iraq really coming aroun >I believe its true. I have seen stories like this (even >though there havent been many) for almost 2 yrs. The media >doesnt put them at the front though. I believe it is deceptive - it looks an awful lot like one of the current...

    What is this little guy thinking?

    It's not as good as the Tutti-fruitti, but a lot better than the creamed spinach!

    Or vice-versa! I apologize to Leo, hadn't looked at the site yet, and didn't realize he is running - both DaveKC and Leo have my vote, and my full confidence, and my appreciation, for taking on another unpaid task on behalf of drivers. You guys ROCK!!:) :) :)

    Eatting a poppy seed bagel will make you test post

    RE: Eatting a poppy seed bagel will make you test Snopes confirmed that, while stating that some "agencies" are now using a standard of 2000ng/mL to avoid the false positive results. I don't eat poppyseed bagels, but when I'm in the mood to make kolaches, poppyseed is a favorite filling, so...

    Agricultural Stations

    It makes sense to me - there are plants that are extremely invasive, like Houttyunia, and purple loosestrife, and also diseases on plants that can wipe out uninfected populations of trees, like Dutch Elm disease. The major growers are aware of what can and cannot be taken out of the state, but a...

    NYC, 95, Expediters

    "NO worries - it'll buff right out" If they got you on film saying that, everyone in America could be ROFL:7 I'm so glad you're back with your tour narratives, & inside info on where to go, what to see there, where to park, etc.:)

    It's Not Your Carrier's Fault

    Broom, you totally misrepresent some of us - I will go to Canada, NYC, Chicago, (have been to all 3 last month), I only need 4 hrs sleep after an all night drive & morning delivery, & after 4pm? I'm on it! But, DON't beep me between 2-4, cause, durn it, that's my NAPTIME!!:P :P :P

    Training for Class B CDL-------- LONG MESSAGE!

    PS I got a CDL A with Hazmat through a driving school, and drove t/t for a big carrier for a year, which is not the way I'd have done it had I discovered the great advice here first. Live and learn, then you can live and earn, lol.:)

    Bob, the answer to your question is stated in this forum, under the thread "team wannabe's", particularly reply #3, by RichM. Good luck! Cheri of NE Ohio :)

    Van (A-B unit) questions

    Thank you, Turtle, for clarifying it! My point has always been that we are simply told to log the prior seven days, when we need to log, but recreating the prior seven days in increments of 15 minutes, or even just hours behind the wheel, is impossible. Defining "on duty" as time spent "on duty...

    Hows the the new FedEx CC FSC program working for

    RE: Hows the the new FedEx CC FSC program working Turtle, I have no doubt that what you say is accurate, but there comes a time when the trickle down effect of passing along "the costs of doing business" combined with the lower revenue to an individual contractor becomes the point of bankruptcy...

    The Real Costs of Down Time

    It seems reasonable that whatever number you can verify as being an average should be accepted. You'll have to fight for it, whether it's the insurance or the other driver's carrier, most likely, but if you are being fair in what you're asking, then you can be firm. And patient - it may take a...

    Music Tunes

    Oooops - just saw the '/music' part of the question. Lately, I've been really enjoying blues guitar, (BB King, Buddy Guy), and bluegrass guitar, (Chet Atkins, Les Paul), and a terrific Texan named Robert Earl Keen (thanks to Moot, who sent me some CDs). It's all good! :)

    Music Tunes

    None - when I'm home, I burn CDs of all kinds, and then I can listen to whatever I like, commercial free :) :) :)

    What is a trip home?

    Painfully close, yep - I could hit the Ohio Turnpike exit with a rock thrown from my balcony, (if I didn't throw like a girl, anyway), and I've driven past my apartment several times, with a forlorn wave...but still, it's good to know it will be there when I do have time to take the exit.:)

    TO FLUSH OR NOT TO FLUSH?

    Neither was Moot, apparently - but I heard the severe cold in Minnesota can do strange things to your brain...:P
