Working on getting our planning done to take the 1/2 break and so we have started practicing. The required 1/2 break is going to give us a great opportunity to get in 1/2 hour of exercising. This can be done by taking a walk or if on a secure load walking around the truck. Either way the 1/2...

We have not found a Farmers Market yet this spring and I am wondering if others have found any? There is a large Farmers Market in Nashville that I hope to get to this year. While in Nashville this year we found the Trolly Cars which will take us to the Farmers Market. While on the Trolley...

Yes they can.

Green Lights in Missouri for us but.... saw lots of traffic inside the scale with tire trucks in attendance.

Cannot wait Lawrence!

We enjoy green tea and I like both green tea and flavored tea. In the evening I put a tea bag in a bottle of water and have flavored water the next day. We drink more water this way and it is less expensive than buying flavored waters.

When you meet your CC for lunch make sure and get to know them, they are your lifeline to the company. Get your T-Chek set up before you leave. If you have ANY questions get them answered. As LDB says take lots of notes as you are going to be brain dead and those notes will sure help you...

Jeff thanks for coming on over to the Expediter Side! There is almost always great discussion over topics like you have brought up.

Really I cannot imagine using the Pressure Cooker going down the road. Cooking while going down the road seems like a recipe for disaster if the truck has to stop fast. What I like about the Rice Cooker is that I can cook something pretty quickly once we stop compared to a slow cooker...

The electric pressure cooker I was looking at sure did not look like the pot my Grandma used. I am not sure why bouncing down the road would affect the pot. I believe that to open the pot the steam must be released by squeezing the handle. The research continues!

The 1/2 hour cannot be used when fueling according to the HOS. For everyone that is NOT paying cash for their fuel be aware of the time stamp. The time stamp is not on the fuel ticket it is on the T-Chek transaction. This will be one of the first things that will be looked at when an audit is...
