    Wonderful Snack

    India, I was so disappointed we finally made it by a Sam's in OKC and they did not have any dates. I hope they will be around for a little bit so we can get back to another Sam's.

    Adding a liftgate

    We have an Innerlift lift gate that we love. The gate is aluminum so very light and very easy to handle. The lift gate has many safety features we like but the best is the foot controls. While on the gate you can use your feet to lower and raise the lift gate and keep your hands free to...

    Thermal Paper Receipts

    I also have the expandable files at home and always thought they did well till I looked up one of my Wal-Mart receipts from January and could barely read it. I know if we are audited in seven years not of these will be readable. What a hassle though.

    Thermal Paper Receipts

    We are getting close to the end of the year and I know I need to copy all of my receipts as some are all ready fading. I am planning on throwing away the original after I have copied and printed them. Does anyone have a good suggestion to keep up with all of these receipts through out the year?

    Wonderful Snack

    The dates sound really great. We are going to have to get to a Sams club soon. How long do they last after you split them and add a pecan? Can you freeze them?

    Union - Could it work, is it needed?

    I don’t think much could make us leave expediting but if this industry where to become a union Bob and I are moving on. Personally if we had to start acting like the auto industry we might as well pack it up now instead of drawing it out for many years and whining because we are not treated...

    Comdata cards or THC

    We use both the Comdata card and the TAB card. At times it is easier to load money onto the Comdata card especially if we are in an area that does not have many Flying J's. We load the TAB card directly from out bank to the TAB card, the draw back there is it takes a couple of days for the...
