A suspected Covid-19 male patient is lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. A young student female nurse appears and gives him a partial sponge bath. "Nurse,"' he mumbles from behind the mask, "are my testicles black?" Embarrassed, the young nurse replies...

I'm not laid off. I worked twice in 15 days :tearsofjoy: You'd think they'd need every driver available for toilet paper

No more "bummer" reaction but I did like the scotch thing

$581 for 50 miles... (150 miles from my front door back to my front door) Now for the gruelling 50 mile drive home. Hope this isn't a one-off. Applied for this work a year ago, got cleared about a month ago. Benefits of a clean record (or, benefits of never getting caught :cool: )

I wish you luck, Roadtime. No shortage of work, shortage of pay is another story...of course expedite hasn't made me or anyone I know rich yet :tearsofjoy:

Ok they aren't N95's but they are masks. I'll avoid the angry looks from people after the government said to save them for medical personnel only. Probably a good thing. There's no id card for having "medically fragile" people at home Dumb people are still trying to congregate in parks...

I was lucky enough to find 3 boxes of N95's in storage. Having medically fragile people at home just paid off. Lots of gloves too I've been holding off on the masks, just taking deliveries I know I can stand at a distance and watch the forklift. Going to wear them going on from here, why not...

All jokes aside, $8.47 Canadian. Minimum wage here is $14 I hope people stop appreciating truck drivers and start paying them. Both is great, but I take money over appreciation

$6? No wonder you quit. (Still a good choice to go back IMO, it's too disorganized to be switching places right now unless you're out of work)

Is any expediter actually having problems with the quarantine in their personal life? Having done this since 2006, I'm not. Seems like nothing has changed. The only issues I see are picking up car repair parts but they've got curbside pickup now, that's an improvement in my mind. So - I never...

If anybody is actually running - post where. Gotta be the slowest monthly thread ever. You'd think something weird was going on? ;)

For what? Just stop eating cheeseburgers ;)

Bought my 2005 long and tall Sprinter 4 years ago. I really don't know if a Transit is worth it, I paid $2900 Reason: shippers lie. In almost every case, it's taller, longer, heavier than they asked for. Here is still the idea that they charge by weight, hence the lies. Very small chance of...

Where is the April thread? Did WOM's exit destroy a tradition? It's the 3rd For locations, I'm working locally (Southern Ontario) and hiding in my house in between. I have the "get out of jail" paper too saying I can cross border and drive interstate. But, I'm not entering a country taking this...

Hospitals say above 60%. If you have time, they put it to the test in this article https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3291447/

I'm running as much as I ever did, locally. Voluntarily I stopped border crossing. Looks like my minimum workload is more than the Canadian bailout. Maybe I can collect it anyway, since it's a huge reduction in my income. With 2 people in the household that have nearly no immune system, I'm...

I resigned from cross border yesterday. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. (From a comfortable distance) Be watching for the restart by Easter. Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

I know what my age is - 45 - and I'm not personally worried about myself. Here's a screenshot from your CDC on age and prognosis (specifically likelihood of a hospitalization with covid-19). If you aren't worried about yourself and don't care about other people, I suppose I don't have an answer...

Haven't watched tv since 1997. We have a terminally ill daughter at home and run our own "icu" at home. With ventilator, and g tube. Had to take many a weekend course at the Toronto Sick Kids hospital for that privilege. 6 months worth of ventilator training yada yada. Even the hint of things...
