Every time one of these threads pops up, P.T. Barnum comes to mind. LOL...

Well, that's better than Floridas new motto. Florida, we're Georiga's penus!

So, where's everyone sweating their behinds off? I decided to flee the apparent freight abyss that is Texas and I'm at the North Little Rock Petro.

You didn't answer, "No, I'm an expediter."? It's amazing what some expect. Like the guy that wanted me to go from Mason, Oh. to Oshawa in 6 hours.

And that's why there should still be 5 and 5. The first driver should have no problem getting through 5 while the other rests. If they're more fatigued than that they should be OOS.

Heck yeah!! Doesn't everyone love high temps of 105? The trucks don't appear to be as stacked up as I heard they were a couple of weeks ago.

Since LRT is paying to be a 5 Star carrier, I don't see anything wrong with this thread.

Balmy, breezy Laredo, Tx.

I'm checking out the Expo threads and it looks like everyone had a great time. The middle of the week it was starting to look like I'd make it, then a sizable pile of money was waved in my face and I'm a boy that just can't say no.

I'm guessing he contracts trucks that actually go in service and run.;)

Carlisle, Pa. Petro. Kinda felt like Laredo here yesterday afternoon.

Being solo in a straight truck is foolish? Why is that? I'm doing fairly well at it. A good place to start for maintainance would be the trucks owners manual.

We are contracted, as opposed to being hired. You can be recruited in either situation.

I don't know if I'll ever be able to look at my sacred chinchilla pelt the same way again.

Your answer is in post #184. I'm at the Saginaw J, ready to get back at it after an awesome vacation. It was the most time I've taken off in many, many moons, and it felt great!

O.K. But, the thing is, you can do your due diligence in making a choice of carriers and you still won't truly know how they work out for you until you sign on. Your carrier and mine would be good examples. Top shelf, but there will still be those that find fault and talk poorly of them after...
