    What Carrier Really Cares about it O/O?

    "Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever met" * It would appear one could substitute Mr. Elliot for Mr. Shaw according to the Load 1 publicity department.:rolleyes: * From the Manchurian Candidate.

    What Carrier Really Cares about it O/O?

    I would think it will depend on a O\O time with a Carrier. If you have a O\O who's on time for pick up & delivery, doesn't turn down every other load offered. Has some time in with any company. That they would be recognized by the Company as beneficial to the Company and someone to keep in your...

    Lies we tell ourselves

    Spending three plus years in the engine room of a Essex class carrier I would beg to differ with you. The Constellation was\is I think Forestall class carrier, or maybe the next class up. Kitty Hawk? I believe she and a sister ship were built in the Brooklyn Navy yard. I'm also fairly sure she...

    Lies we tell ourselves

    Skyraider, If you were born in 1946 the earliest you could have gotten into the Navy (legally) would be 1963. As a Minority Cruise. My question is the name of the "Sailing" ship you were on. :p I served from 1958 -1961 and didn't know of any "sailing" ships. Plenty of Steam powered ships some...

    Flat Rate vs. Percentage Pay

    I'm sure more then one of you can answer this so even I can understand it.:p When using the $1.00 per mile cost for both trucks, is this a general figure?. It would seem to me the way a person drives, maintains and particularly when one may be paying a fair sized payment and the other home free...

    This makes no sense .. to me anyway

    "I can only imagine the smell inside any vehicle with two people & pets, yyyuuukkk" Having seen some of the people getting out of rigs at Truck Stops, I'll take my dogs any time.

    Was His Death A Wake-Up Call?

    Back around page three "Those Social programs, even Medicare are not insurance programs with paying subscribers" When you say to a Government employee "I would rather not have Medicare B" Government employee "You need to take it or you will be penalized 10% each and every year you refuse to...

    Higher Down Payments

    I'm not making myself clear. It's the Fleet owner who hires a couple with no experience and puts them in a Straight truck with Fed ex or Panther or anyone else. How does the inexperience come into play. I would think the Fleet owners Insurance carrier would want to know something about the...

    Higher Down Payments

    Regarding Insurance Companies. It has been posted on here more then once if a driver has no experience in a Straight truck. That person won't be insured. Then how do the husband & wife teams coming from working K Mart or waiting tables get into a Fleet owners truck with no experience?.:rolleyes:

    Unless the poster is ready & willing to upgrade to a Class A CDl, he probably doesn't want to purchase a Class #8 tractor.

    This makes no sense .. to me anyway

    I would guess there are far more accidents caused by Cellular phones, talking and or texting. Then there are from a pet(s) being in the rig with you.

    Using Driver Relations as a decision maker

    Not to beat a dead horse. I used a ugly, rude, bad, dirty word to a dispatcher. And I used it about four times in thirty seconds :rolleyes:. The dispatcher instead of calling me back after I had delivered sent a note to the head of Drivers Releations complaining. He in turn called me the next...
