    THUD Amendment Targets New Driver Hours of Service Rules

    Xiggi Corporate america is spending it a fast as we are. They are banking on what we spend today to operate tommorow..Boycott 1 truck stop or one grocery store for a week and something is going to cave in. Yes the freight may move the next day but at what cost to the ppl waiting for it? Dont...

    Believe it or not and I thought I would never say this..But if we gotta use something as a tracking device I SO want the QC back..When ya dont have it ya realize it wasnt that bad. For load offers and mapping purposes only of course..Dont need/want the ELOGS connected to them tho.

    Another change coming to you....

    This little peice of paper has never been a burden to the truck that I can see..In fact it could be my only agurement/proof during a roadside inspection that my stuff was in order before starting the trip.

    Im thinking the Unions lost on this one..They lost a chance at a paid 30 min break resulting in possible 30 min overtime..I would think if there was money behind this decision it came from big bussiness and not the unions???
