If it's frozen Margaritas - just fill the blender with cubes - no need to figure! ;)

RE: Drugs and a Truckers responsibility to be avai Broom, I was steamed when I read that, too! The article I saw said "the officers on the scene were instructed by an officer above the rank of patrolman to take Mr. Kennedy home" - in spite of the fact that he "appeared intoxicated"!! The...

Leo, the point isn't to "get even, or have fun" - it's to tell the senders of unsolicited mail that we don't want it! And as long as they keep sending it, I'll keep returning it. (If the credit card companies think I'm having fun, I bet they quit sending it in a heartbeat!) Whatever it costs...

Well, being a solo with a 28" sleeper, I envy your 70"! Just kidding - it's enough room for me, & if I had nore room, I'd just have to take more stuff off the bed when I want to sleep, lol. Running team is a hard thing to do successfully - it's living and working together, which is a wee bit...

Dear Margaret, I don't think that God posts on this site, lol, but we do have lots of really smart & helpful people, like DaveKC, who will try to answer. The Qualcomm is something you will get familiar with in orientation, & no, it can't be heard outside your truck - but you can send a...

I like the sockets for Etrack, with a 2x6 or 2x8, both in front & behind the pallet(s) - it has held firm, even in a near-panic stop. I don't want to damage the freight, or my vehicle, or me either! I have at least 6 ratchet straps, but usually find the sockets & boards are enough - plus...

Hey Danny - I for one, have been running my wheels lately, instead of my mouth....(Or would that be my fingers?) It's been a nonstop 2 weeks for me, & I'm glad - also happy to read others' opinions, too. If you don't mind me asking - why are you thinking of being a part timer?

Somehow, it just doesn't seem fair that government entities can change the laws, not publicize the changes, and then collect money from individual drivers who were not aware of the revised law. And every state can do it - making it pretty near impossible to be law abiding. People who post of...

wow - can you really do yhat? (Put the 'NO POSTAGE REQUIRED" envelope on something else) I've been returning the envelopes for a couple years now, but that is soo cool - I have lots of stuff to get rid of, and lots of boxes, and no love for the USPS. This could be great! But have you actually...

RE: What is some funny stuff you seen while drivin A non-English speaking security guard chasing my truck when I pulled out onto the street, waving his arms, & yelling - which was funny only because he couldn't catch me, though it was pretty close through the first 8 gears! (I couldn't...

Last month, I noticed a Panther van had been sitting, with headlights on, for more than 24 hrs, so I knocked on the door. The driver was ok, watching tv in the back, and glad to know that someone cared about his welfare. I'm not sure what I'd have done if he hadn't answered, probably inquired at...

I've been known, when observing a person of average or better agility parking in a handicapped space, to leave a Post-it note on the windshield, saying: "Ignorance IS a handicap, but it's not what the sign meant!" Like Louixo, and many others, I'm sure, I park a long walk away, & feel grateful...

A few days ago, I transferred a load to another driver, who had a handicapped placard hanging from the rearview mirror. In the interest of full disclosure: the driver is the owner I began expediting driving with. She used a handicapped tag then too, (which belonged to her mother, she said, when...

And would your Mom & Dad get the "My child is..." bumpersticker for their Buick, too? :D

Packmule: DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT CHANGING THAT LAST LINE!! I was enjoying your lyrics, but when I got to the last line, well, I'm still wiping Diet Coke off the monitor! Highway Star: There aren't enough Margaritas in the universe to get me to sing - except when I'm driving, cause like George...

I'd say: if he hasn't read the answers to that question after three years - maybe he should read more than the Loading Dock forum? :+

Every van I looked at when looking for an expedite vehicle, left me wishing that Toyota built one, and knowing that I'd really miss the Corolla (my Corollerskate, lol) that I'd be giving up. I've owned a lot of vehicles, all Detroit steel, and often thought that the best explanation for the...

If an Expediter of the Month (or quarter, or whatever) is something people would like to do, the moderators could nominate, & the members could vote. The biggest problem I can see, is where to put the designated parking space that "Best Whatever of the Month" always gets....:+ :7

While I totally agree that 90% of DUIs are repeat offenders, & should be penalized with a sledgehammer, I have to admit that there are those first time offenders who don't need to have their livelihood denied, in order to learn their lesson. Particularly since dumb luck plays such a major role...

Danny: first, I'd like to say congratulations (not the word I want, really, but it'll do) for trying to work your way out of a problem, instead of slide out of it. That says that EGL is lucky to have you, & if Co.2 doesn't see that, it's their loss. What I would do, about the second run, is...
