Are you talking Ground or Freight ?

I tried to deflect blame from the driver until the details are out. The early news reports said both truck drivers were killed which would make one think of of Ground. Obviously it's Freight, as evidenced by later photos. I attended funerals for a horrific crash that killed two of our...

FedEx Freight is big Union type money. I know of a recent case where they dismissed a 20 year driver who was shaving time off his 30 minute break. He refused to take the full break. After a few warnings they terminated him. How do you tell your wife you lost a nice $80,000 a year job because...

Let's not assume the driver was at fault. The Nissan Altima is mentioned as the cause in most early reports. There is a whole different dynamic when you run a set run. If you know you go out at 8 pm you try to do things on days because you can squeeze it in between shifts. The accident was...

When I pulled Workhorse Chassis out of Union City, In I was always confused about the time. I got a handle on it when the terminal manager explained that they ( Union City) were on Central Time, but pretended to be on Eastern Time because that matched up with most of their vendors. Pretend...

They do have some. They really shouldn't have. Most runs are scheduled. There's enough money to pay a decent rate. There's just so many of them. If Bob's Produce did something rude in Jan and Frank's Furniture did something in Feb it would long since been forgotten. The large FedEx logo is...

Just saw a picture from early on. It was FedEx freight.

Saw that guy tonight. He added more lights.

Kinda like some Red Wings Fans last year during the play offs. :)

Monday night showed maybe not serious enough.

How do the batteries hold up ?

It took 27 mins because they offered it to the full timers first.

One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer ?

Dave, with 24 trucks aren't you big enough to negotiate with your carrier ?

I notice many fuel Mom & Pop and wash up in the sink. Shower when you get home.

Resist ? After what you read on here you have a desire to switch on occasion ? Pee in this cup and sign here.

Run this theory past the Caffee's.

We bag the porti potti tank in plastic bags. Slip that into a canvas shopping bag. Can walk into a stall and dump it for free. Or take it in when you shower. We dump it daily so it doesn't get too heavy. Wife usually dumps it as less activity in ladies room. If needed, slip the spray...

Read recent insurance and /or Progressive threads. That may be as good as you'll do.
