I concur. It's an awesome bunch.

Thanks for the context. I did like the story. It was short, but complete. Had a beginning, middle and an end. It is coherent and follows the basics of good story telling. It's rare to see that these days on forums. :)

No, no need. Just stamp a big "L" on your forehead and you're good to go. :D

I'm fine, on the phone with OVM. It's more of an inconvenience than an actual perdikament. I really don't need any cash between here and home, cause I've got those loyalty points to eat on, and I'll have either the card or I can just go to the bank after I get home. Thanks for your concern, tho. :)

I don't know about that, but since the story is without context, no link or anything to give it context, it's nothing more than a random Deep Thought. Nicely written, tho.

Pass Through is indeed the correct term, but it's one applied to employees, not to independent contractors with 1099s. For an independent contractor, income is income, and the amount reimbursed for tolls, fuel, or whatever other expenses you may incur is still income. Phil's post is correct.

I'm heading home. Had hoped to get a load in that general direction, but doesn't look like that's gonna happen. So, it's 600 miles home from Warren. I travel pretty much exclusively on my debit card. I do use the Fleet One card for fuel most of the time, but occasionally I'll get fuel on my...

The thesis was just my way of saying I don't understand the rationale behind '4 and out' and that '4 and out' is virtually the same thing as no Available-Sleeping status at all. I freely admit to not having a clue how one can use or abuse OOS or Available-Sleeping to get better loads while at...

Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy

4 hours? That pretty much defeats the entire purpose of "Available-Sleeping". People need to be able to get a decent amount of sleep without being penalized by losing their board position. At the same time, once they are back "In-Service: Available", then they are ready for a load, able to...

Unfortunately your comments were trolling. Code of Conduction violation. Warning issued. Thread closed. Please stop trolling.

The idea of sending a Macro for "available-out of truck" is truly complicating the simple, at least at Load 1. Like OVM said, just tell Jeremy to stop doing that, and the problem is solved. It boils down to which method you want to use as the primary way of communicating loads and load offers...

Yeah, so? and.... No, he didn't. At least three people here think that as long as the topic of a troll is consistent with the acceptable stated topics of a given forum, that it becomes somehow a loophole that allows trolling. It does not. A troll is a troll regardless of whether it is...

You've started threads specifically to take shots across the bow at southerners specifically (and non-Californians in general) for this or that, played up stereotypes to incite and anger people, and then contrast it to things like that never happen in California. That's what it has to do with...

I assume you mean Fox News. :D

You'd think that, but not having water, or mixed coolant, when you need it, can turn a simple 5 or 10 minute problem into a 3 or 4 hour ordeal, all because you've got to go track down some distilled water.

From the Courrier Press... The last line is just killer. That's the argument against the Bill. Holy crap. If officers weren't routinely entering homes illegally, there would be no mental struggle to figure it out. Sheesh.

Ernest T Bass. He's just misunderstood.

It's hanging down and danglin' and slapping the post about a third of the way down. As for disputing what you've said, thanks, but I'm fine without it. I did that once, and you dismissed irrefutable facts because they didn't agree with your preconceived notions and beliefs. Besides, there are...

Any auto parts store or store that sells mechanic's tools will have all the tools necessary to change the fuel filter. They're not all that special, really... T20 Torx Bit (water sensor screws) T30 Torx Bit (filter body clamp) Needle nose pliers. (hose clamps) Flathead screw driver (for...
