    September 11-17th...National Truck Driver Appreciation Week

    Thank you for your valued input. We will take your suggestion under advisement. :D There are already general guidelines that are in place, namely if something is of general interest but gets posted to a carrier forum because the OP only wants responses from people from their carrier, it's...

    Something nice imho

    Except when the glass is half full, it's only half full and it's supposed to be fully full. When the glass if half empty, it could be worse. It could be all the way empty. So there. :p Optimists may say the glass is half-full. Pessimists may say the glass is half-empty. I say using a glass...

    Obama Looking Like Job Killer In Chief

    Yes, it does, except the subject of the thread isn't necessarily defined by the thread title, is it defined by the content of the initial post. It was staying more or less on-topic until you wanted to talk about trade deals and health reform and Boeing and all manner of crap not Gibson. It's...

    The Myth Of Male Power

    Yes, I'm well aware of the issue, and of how many people view it. It was the exact same issue when the law was written, and challenged in court, and is the reason behind every reexamination of the law by those who periodically look at it for the purpose of changing it. As an amateur social...

    Cab curtains for vans

    You're gonna love 'em. Because they're thermal, you can have the windshield facing directly at the sun and all the heat just bounced back through the windshield. It'll also get you frost on the inside of the windows in the winter, too. It's really amazing just how thermal insulating they are...

    The Myth Of Male Power

    That was recently disgussed in here somewhere. It has to do with Supreme Court rulings and how Congress wants to word the law. It's been revisited several times by the military, the executive and legislative branches of government since the law went into effect, and some changes have been made...

    The Game

    It's also called being an ineffective communicator. Those who communicate in public forums using "insider" language, phrasings, metaphors and innuendo don't come off as brazen as much as condescending, arrogant, elite. Because they know something the average less (or differently) experienced...

    Today's New Truck Drivers and Their Training

    Oh good grief. When someone says "X carrier is the worst," clearly that's a statement of opinion, as by definition "best" and "worst" are subjective, not objective, and those coming up with "best" and "worst" get to define the parameters of the criteria which determines their decision. To even...

    The Game

    It appears the driver turned down the same load three times, then dispatch called the driver's fleet owner and talked the fleet owner into playing employer. There's the big picture, and then there's the big picture. Without knowing exactly what happened, it's hard to say.

    Obama Looking Like Job Killer In Chief

    Except, of course, the thread is about what happened at Gibson, not about every other thing. And, it doesn't surprise me that you find it "funny that gibson has been doing it this way for years and never had a problem." So why the sudden change from law enforcement? Well, it's because Gibson...

    LOL, Nascar Drivers to barry...Thanks, but NO Thanks..

    I had little or no respect for Junior when I was invited to meet him. But I have respect for the Presidency. I went. It was an honor. It was an honor to be invited, it was an honor to be in the White House, it was an honor to shake hands with the President.

    Obama Looking Like Job Killer In Chief

    That's because, unlike the writer, I had the presence of mind to ask myself, "Why did they raid Gibson?" and then, more importantly, try to find out actually why, instead of assuming why. It's one of the "Five-Ws" (Who, What, When, Where, Why) that many writers leave out of stories, especially...

    Cab curtains for vans

    The ones that go on the outside just seem to me to be a potential PITA when it's raining or snowing and you get a call on which you have to quickly roll, then you gotta deal with dragging a wet tarp into the van. These are what I use (also can be found here), but I have never been able to find...

    Uhm, since 1900 when the Lacey Act was signed into law. Duh. With stories like these, things are rarely as black and white as the bias indicates, and there's usually more to the story.
