Something I decided in Nov was to lose 1 pound per year of age, this means I'll be losing 57 to 60 pounds this year. Started at 232 down to 224 right now plan on 2 pounds per week, so I hope to be down another 40 or so pounds by May. Eating less in truck stops helps, now just need a gym...

Gregg here is the IRS rules on if a person is a independent contractor or not, and yes they do make the rules for tax purposes and they can come back on the owner of the business for back taxes. ie SS You will see there is a list to to find out if you are a employee or not. I will tell you...

Amonger, if Bolt paid the truck and the truck was owned by Big Al, then his son would be paid by Big Al not bolt. If their son leased the truck from Big Al then their son leased it on to Bolt then their son would be the contractor. This is from Big Al's OP History, we were leased to Bolt last...

Amonger They owned the truck and their son drove for them, that makes him their employee not Bolt's.

Gregg I agreed with you, I was pointing out this was a state issue and had noting to do with the Feds and Obama

Your son was your employee, not Bolt's since you owned the truck and were leased to Bolt. Medical would be covered by the at fault company, which is the company with the fork lift. Now are they fighting the claim against their insurance or did your son hire a lawyer in which case they would...

Gregg, I caught the same thing. It was a state issue not a Fed issuse on the ticket.

I'm still trying to figure out how a 1/2 hour break is going to cause people problems. Yes now it's required, most of us took one anyway. The 1 to 5, yes that can be a pain, but people will adapt to these just like they adapted to the last two HOS changes. Heck on the OOIDA site people are...

Jaws staying home till after new years, but I ended up running a load to ca

I grew up in SolCal, a 5.8 is nothing unless you never was in one. Most of us just go about our business. I have been thru every major earthquake in SolCal from 1954 (born) till I left SolCal six years ago for Texas. As for weakened buildings, they would have been condemned if there not safe to...

5.8 is not massive, a 7 is

I learned a long time ago there is no such thing as a back haul.

It was on the news last night and they also showed UPS doing the same thing throwing freight around.

Slo-ride, FMCSA cannot push it to a later date because of the lawsuit still pending in federal court. If FMCSA ****es off the safety groups then the lawsuit they have going will be before the same court. If they **** off the trucking companies, which is my bet then they will sue the FMCSA, but...

FYI its still a 14 hour clock once you start, the only difference is you will now have to take a couple of breaks that you take now. just look at it this way two 15 minute breaks broken up by a 30 minute lunch. If you have ever worked outside of the over the road segment of trucking you would...

What happens when Congress helps, you get screwed worse then before they helped.

I have found even in a big truck a down confronter queen size made into a taco shape will keep me warm to about 20 to 25 degrees. coldest its been for me so far has been 28 degrees. But that's just me. I've been insulating the sprinter still have a ways to go, but I might go it over Christmas.

I think I can answer the question this way. If you have to log your going to get screwed by the FMCSA

I have been doing the expediting thing for 6 months and I figured going in it would take a long time to get it down and boy was I right. I have good weeks and crappy weeks and I still screw up all the time. Doing TT for 20 years is a different ball game all together.
