    Why is it?

    I would have to totally agree with you on the "Are they keeping you busy?" question along with the rest of your response.

    Why is it?

    The recent thread "RE:Busy, you bet" has prompted me to finally go public and ask the following questions of the Expediting Community. Why is it so many expediters have to ask: Are you loaded and what is it? Where is your load going? How much does your load pay? How much did you gross...

    "Could you move your truck so I can park?"

    As a T/T driver with over 25 years of experience, I for one will say that YOU did ALL of the RIGHT things in handling both situations! I am appalled at the number of T/T drivers out here today that CAN"T back a T/T safely into a parking space. I'm also appaulled at the number of T/T drivers...

    What's really underneath the kilt? (Photos attached)

    Have you ever wondered what he's wearing underneath his kilt? Well I aint going there! Use your own imagination thankyou! LOL Seriously, do you ever wonder "what's that truck hauling underneath the tarps" especially when its a really odd shaped load? Tarped loads can be deceiving at first...

    A Question for SUCCESSFUL Solo Drivers

    I do have to agree with my wife. Trying to get Phil to see the errors of his ways is like talking to a wall. It just stands there clueless and ignores you! LOL Enough said!

    Speed Limiters

    The carrier we are leased to is not requiring Canadian compliant speed limiters on the O/O trucks which make up their entire fleet. They rent a day cab tractor at the boarder for the driver to pull their trailer into Canada with. Although its been a year since we left the Fed I have to wonder...

    A Question for SUCCESSFUL Solo Drivers

    Its amazing how some choose to hide behind their "ignore" feature rather than admit they were wrong in their actions! Oh I forgot, some people are always right! My bad. LOL I for one was taught that a man is always to be respectful and courteous towards a female. Sadly there are others that...

    A Question for SUCCESSFUL Solo Drivers

    Gee Greg, I think I'm seeing a pattern here.LOL Instead of (at my request) Phil apoligizing to my wife after being rude to her a few months back, he instead chose to put us on his ignore list to! Guess thats how you're supposed to handle things.

    Songs that describe EO members

    Of course mine would be the song called "The Streak"!:p For quite a while Williams Gaming made "Wild Streak" slot machines using that theme song. The bonus round was seeing how long your streaker could run around collecting points before the cop got em! That was my favorite slot machine to...

    Found it by accident!

    Sometimes the best things are found totally by accident. Such was the case for us this afternoon. Great Texas Bar B Que !!! We had left Dallas with our load and headed east on I-30 when at about the 127mm I noticed a strap flapping in the wind on the passenger side of my load. Not our strap...

    Who are you?

    Recently I was told that seven other ER-units/teams left FECC and went over to Southern Pride out of San Diego,CA since we left the Fed almost a year ago. Since they now haul the same type of freight as us we would love to know who you are. We were provided the names of one team by our source...

    High Winds

    Yepper! I was on my weekly tropical plant run for Midwest Coast Transport at the time. I was trying to stay ahead of the storm with my weekly multi-stop run. After deilivering to my Raliegh/Durum customers my Winston Salem customer called and said they had to close so everyone could go home and...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Plenty of broken planes. I'm sitting outside a hanger right now waiting on an engine. I just like to check in on one of the several websites I frequent when waiting or going down the road while the wife is driving. The frequency of how often I become a blip on the EO radar is no indication of my...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Something I failed to say in my earlier post on this thread is this: As the owner of a small business would you tolerate one of your employees showing up in less than approriate attire, etc. I think not. If image is part of the selling point for your business, you are going to protect your...
