    The Game

    I got to thinking about the title, "The Game" ..... in my business I dont play "games", either the load offer is a sound business decision, or it is not. How the carrier deals with it is of no concern to me. There are no penalties at Landstar, other than that particular agent may not call you...

    Read it and weep .. your ecm can tell more than any new fangled gadget, and, (most), trucks already have one. http://ntl.bts.gov/lib/31000/31700/31706/U06-Trusted_TruckR_II__Phase_A_.pdf There was a lot of interest in this project, not sure the status of it at this moment in time. This...

    Information can also help and justify your actions, the pendulum swings both ways. No longer can a dispatcher, etc, even suggest you violate the rules. Such as, "Well, you do have another log book". It also mandates that you will be assured of a proper 10 hours, no interuptions and...
