    Driver retention

    See, you've got it backwards. You're supposed to take all the great paying loads in the company trucks, and pay the drivers barely enough to live on. All the crap loads go to the O/O until they starve to death or go bankrupt (you get your percentage regardless and pay no expenses). That way...

(Noticed it first around 65 mph) I started carrying spares and a balljoint press in my 2003 E350 for side...

    Whelp, holidays over. Back to reality. I love browsing want ads when I'm already employed. "5 years or never Van, must stay out 2-3 weeks, and we'll pay 10c a mile less than everyone else" (paraphrased to protect their identity) Nope, lol. I pay for van, I say when I work. Not really looking...

    I'm not dead, so everything's great! Still expediting (when I can) Everybody knows my family situation. Had to adjust my work is all. But spending time at home has its perks too ;)

    I get it. But the cleanup would probably make quite a few local jobs, rather than status quo. Course, who pays? I would move. Sent from my STV100-3 using Tapatalk

    Why aren't more people in jail? Somebody pouring lead in the river would probably get consecutive life sentences... Sent from my STV100-3 using Tapatalk

    Dude, call Washington and see what they think. I don't believe they'd be a fan of you growing pot plants in your backyard. Ours is being "pushed" (lol) at the federal level. Also we will have it in stores, to browse all the varieties. I've had several local expedites to and from a facility...

    Ok. I'm going to gush here. Maybe I'm sheltered, but nothing can describe saying "ok google, navigate to (insert delivery address here)" and have everything pop up without lifting a pinky! Also tested "closest mcdonalds" and "closest walmart" and my choices popped up, again without lifting a...
