    Our Retirement

    Many of you have seen our 2010 Refrigerated Van posted in the classified section and have asked us what is going on. I thought this might be a better way to let everyone know what we are doing. We are selling the van and finally retiring! My husband is a cancer survivor and we have decided we...

    Really?????

    Zorry, I think you missed the point Lucy was trying to make. It isn't that the company needs to "get this under control." It is that they are completely removing drivers from the company for targeted things they determined to be more serious or controlled than other things. So, not only does...

    Double-Checking Your Scans....

    DD, thank you for sharing this information. This is a learning process for each of us. We have actually had two different BOLs to scan at once and we have to be very careful about which number goes with each one. Thanks for the reminder!! india

    Bag-less Walmart

    I was shocked recently to see the Walmart stores in the Austin, TX area no longer have bags at the registers! Shoppers can purchase cloth bags but if you do not purchase the bags you just have all your groceries and supplies in the cart! I had to empty the frozen food, veggies, fruit &...

    Punitive Lock

    Those of you who are new with the company need to be aware to regularly check your status when you are sitting between loads. Here is our story and it is not the first time it has happened to us: We delivered an early morning load and decided to stay in the area. We noticed a TVAL lock on our...

    Scanners

    The original can be tossed (recycled!!!) as long as you keep a copy for your records but once it is scanned in and you receive the msg that it was received you can dispose of the paper copy.

    Scanners

    We have also used ours all week and we really like it. Each time we scan we are receiving the msg about the paperwork received. But we are not thrilled with having to scan it twice, once to the CLink and once to our computer (using Neat Receipts). But we must remember that just because they...

    Scanners

    We received our scanner yesterday but the scanning option is still grayed out on our unit. We called FECC only to discover Tom is out until Monday and NO ONE else knows anything about the scanners!!! Obviously Tom should have days off but the company should have someone else trained to do...

    Scanners

    Our new scanner arrived today. It is a bit larger than our "Neat Receipt" scanner and it is heavier. Now we will be carrying two scanners but we won't have to fool with the trip paks! Yahoo!!

    Scanners

    Hey! Let's talk about scanners! Wonder if those of us who already have the little "Neat Receipt" scanners will be able to use them or will the company now require us to purchase yet another piece of equipment we already own. Any thoughts?

    Air tabs on cargo vans?

    We love our air tabs and wouldn't go without them. We have not seen much difference in fuel savings but that buffering that occurs every single time a big truck or motor home passes us has been greatly reduced. Until we added the air tabs I never realized how often I gripped the steering wheel...

    satilite raido in spriter

    Our experience has taught us to avoid Best Buy for any radio work in the Sprinter! We have been to three different Best Buy stores, thinking perhaps the technicians at one store might be better than others. NOT!! We finally took our Sprinter to Crutchfield and they have the necessary...

    Adding # to speed dial

    I recently lost my speed dial numbers when I updated my phone! GRRRR! So, I have added the speed dial numbers back but one of them was something that I can't seem to add again. When we call in to our 800 number we have to enter our security code, then the pass code, then the dispatch number...

    Is anyone playing Google's Ingress?

    Ingress is still in Beta but it looks like it is going to be an amazing thing to do while on layover in towns all over the US. Looks like Google is doing it right so far.
