    Windshield Cleaning..my view

    The price may be right, but it won't fit a large tire. Check this out Universal Big Truck(tm) Tire Step I use Sprayway aerosol glass cleaner. Costco sells it for $7.49 for a 4 pack. It can also be found at Ace Hardware stores. Spray it on, let it sit for a few minutes and then use the...

    Lane Closed Ahead

    Hi, my name is Moot and I'm an early merger. It's usually fairly obvious which lane is closed, it's the lane where traffic is still moving. The rolling road block is only beneficial to the vehicles ahead of the road blocking trucks. It creates a greater delay and mess for everyone caught...

    QualComm Text Messages

    Thanks Shaker. I talked to Linda in Driver Relations this morning. She was aware of some problems with Verizon. Got a QC message from Beverly (bevm) this afternoon. She stated that Verizon and QualComm were working on the problem and I wouldn't get charged the weekly $2.00 fee. She said she...

    QualComm Text Messages

    Is anyone who is enrolled in the QC text message program not receiving load offers via text message. I have Verizon service and switched to a smart phone on the afternoon of June 30th, about the time QualComm sends out their monthly enrollment message. Not sure if this is a coincidence or...

    The Iron Range load

    Did you deliver to Minntac? Mine stuff or for the Taconite Ridge wind thing? I picked up a load the day after Thanksgiving from Taconite Ridge and delivered to a wind farm in western New York. Are you hauling wind generator stuff? I also toured Minntac in 1975 for a presentation for an...

    Hey, I do it occasionally for dramatic effect. This time I did it as part of a quote. It really wasn't me that used that offensive word, but rather Charles S. Gill, whom I quoted.

    That was quick! Got the warning at 19:43 and was even referred to as a "jerk." I was just quoting a friend. Now I have quoted myself, which most likely will lead to blindness. Oh well!

    Etrack

    Back to the subject of E-track; Tech, what make of van do you have? If you have a stock Ford or Chevy get rid of the rubber mat. Floor insulation is a good thing but it also reduces your door height, which is a bad thing! With vans often it comes down to give and take. In the case of a stock...

    Etrack

    Never even thought about it? Not even in your dreams? I'm sure at some point in your expedite career you awoke in the morning and realized you had a pretty good dream going. At first you thought the dream was about ... Then you realized the dream was really about owning and driving a van...

    John, I admire what you have done and have never heard a negative word about you or your company. And while a company is what it is, change is inevitable. Ask any former Roberts, Con-Way or early Panther contractor about change. As your company grows, you as owner will need to hire more...

    You may have read that on this very E.O. forum. I am one of the people who have it "backwards" and have posted my thoughts about this more than a few times. If you want to act and be treated like an employee that's fine. I do find it funny that you claim I have it backwards though! I had a...

    It's the tremendous growth that eventually turns the best company into a monstrous meat grinder.

    down hill spiral

    And exactly why didn't you get the message? I guess I didn't get the message either. But I did get a really cool QC message and E-mail from some dude at Panther that mentioned something about the price of fuel at TA's and then quoted a piece Ronald Reagan wrote in 1981 entitled: What July...
