    Police Recruiting Video

    I take each officer on an individual basis, IF, I have the chance to do so. I trust NO "police" or "law enforcement", department. The higher the level, as in local, to state, to federal, the less trust I have. Government, is by it's very nature, prone to becoming oppressive. It may start out...

    I was wrong!

    We tend to refuse those loads, for two reasons, they tend to pay much lower than our normal freight does and we cannot stand working the 8/2 clock. It is VERY tiring and messes us up for our normal work.

    Police Recruiting Video

    That will give you the heebee geebees. This is why we need our citizens armed, to be the check and balance to a government that is hell bent on total control The "camo suits" are called "Ghillie suits" and those just look like normal long range scopes, not particularly "state of the art". The...

    "The 80/20 rule comes into effect here. 80 percent of the workers will show up, barely complete the job requirements and whine about their pay while 20 percent of the workers will work hard and work smart to get promoted into management and get the bonuses." I agree with the above thought but I...

    DOT Physicals

    It depends on the State and the zip code in that state. We were forced into a BCBS plan that costs more, and covers less, than the old plan we had. The OLD plan covered more, including sleep stuff, the new plan is stuffed with mandatory crap we have no need what so ever for. Gotta pay for...

    NOT ONE of the ObamaCare plans that my wife could buy in our part of Michigan cover sleep tests and few, if any, covered CPAP.

    The point was that laws are not needed, personal responsibility is.

    Fatigued Driving

    I don't believe that rules, law or regulations, or the lack of them or enforcement is the problem. The problem lies with the driver. It is the drivers responsibility to be in condition to do the job. That includes being awake.

    Tucker Carlson defends Truck Driver in Tracy Morgan crash

    It is, without any doubt, the responsibility of the driver to NOT fall asleep at the wheel.

    I am VERY happy that the problem is resolved and he is working again. As to the name calling, as hard as this may sound, it's true, no one ever died from that. It's a hard, tough world, there is nothing new under the sun. Just deal with it and move on.

    Has he looked into starting a window washing business? Growing demand makes it an interesting and relatively inexpensive business. Our population is aging, a trend that will continue for at least another 25-30 years. I was talking with a window washer at the Denny's in Monroe a couple of weeks...

    No I disagree. I have faith in the American people. I believe in their ability to overcome. Just turn us loose. I KNOW for a FACT about several jobs that WOULD have been created, 4 full time, year around jobs and 20-30 summer jobs that are NEVER going t be there. WHY? The government. My friend...

    The problems are not that complex. They are just being sold that way to us by the media to keep the powers that be IN power. THAT is the problem, left to our own devices the American people would fix this mess. It's government in the way that is causing ALL of our problems.

    A hunker would help, BUT, none of the duds in Washington that are causing these problems would EVER show up, and if they did, they would not listen. They would likely outlaw the bonfire!

    That is EXACTLY what is happening. Those who are being hurt the most are those who work. They are being hurt by a "party" that "CLAIMS" to look out for the working man and then do everything in their power to create an environment that is going to drive investment, and jobs with it, away. It is...

    Also keep in mind that the United States has one of the HIGHEST corporate tax rates in the world. Much of the job losses can be blamed squarely on the backs of Obama's policies. Michigan is having to close down coal generation plants, hundreds of jobs going away, never to be replaced. There...

    Truck accident

    Not so in Michigan. Every state is different. It also changed how I had to file for the accident in MI. It was done differently in NY.
