    Working for Fleet

    I'd have to say i'd leave you alone. Experience being the problem. Be careful what you listen to concerning this business, Drivers as well as Advisors as well as Recruiters will conflict in their discussions with you. There are way too many agendas and players to get it right the first time...

    A/C metal contamination aka black death

    That's what i'm talking about JAMINJIM!! El Paso is a fir piece sout o Edmonton!!! I applaud you. Sometimes, ya gotta just grin and bear it if, you want to have your plan come together. You probably made enough by hanging in there, not limping home, and not breaking up your momentum to pay...

    Re I need help and How to leave a bad owner

    I guess if I had all week I would go outa town if I wanted to. If I had to have an appointment to repair a comuter, i'd find anuther computer fixer. I'd react as you anticipate, if the above were all it took to create a show stopper. I'm just wondering why a person can't run the truck if it...

    Do you need more freight?

    I only run into dock boys and girls that don't wanna. When that happens, I go speak with the shipping supervisor. If he/she is lazy also, I go speak with the big boss, and explain I work very hard to move their freight, and, would like some help from them to get 'R' done. I have never had an...

    Do you need more freight?

    We routinely turn our 30 footer into 60, when there is someone in the truck to do it without whining. Once my wife and I were in the valley in Texas and made about 5 pickups and loaded 60 foot of rebuilder shopping carts going to Michigan. The load only paid $2600 but, it was plenty slow down...

    Re I need help and How to leave a bad owner

    Everyone figgures their time off differently it seems. To me, if you're off, and off at home, regardless of the reason, i believe it would be time off, and, outa being "stuck in the truck". regardless of the reason, take advantage of your down time and relax. Waiting for a load in Florida as...

    Auxiliary Fuel Tank

    I'd imagine it'd cost you more than paying the taxes, and, if you put some piece of ##### tank on there think of how it might downgrade the appearance of your truck. How about buying a keg, you might get more good emptying it than using it for a tank, but, that could work too.

    I'd say it picked up

    I know, I know. But, if you were look'in over a sand dune, and were waiting for that "big" cat with the automatic weapon, wouldn't you kinda like to know about that "little" old lady with the dynamite straped to her also? It's all part of a decent assessment of the situation.

    Driver Shortage

    You be lucky, if you're finding two out of ten. But then, they open their mouth and you're back to ground zero I suppose. I don't know if you meant changing business or challenging, but, it's way too much of a challenge for me. I quit look'in. They'll just have to go work at the Post Office...

    Do you need more freight?

    Lets not let this die on the vine. The Dispatcher understands enough to be dangerous. The rest of you couldbees, or wannabees, or mightbees need to give us some food for the grey matter. There hasn't been close to enough covered for someone to get really interested.

    Driver Shortage

    Kinda what Terry said. There is no shortage of what I define as "truck Aimers" The ones that slam the freight on, turn the XM up, drive till they get hungry, or, tired. There is however, a shortage of freight securing, customer oriented, profit minded, care for equipment, strive to excell...
