Probably not Xiggi....personally our lounge has no value to me....BUT that is ME...at most I'd have a Micro available in a common spot that office and dispatch uses....that is it......O/O's can fend for themselves...they'll just dirty it, break it, steal it and expect more....fact of life.....they can appreciate me when their paycheck doesn't bounce even more...

Not quite.....I just don't use the room...BUT others really like it....that is just the differences between people....OUR shower well that is really appreciated....I use it and help keep it clean.

Well............Uummm..............

Back to Drivers Lounges...................

Does any of the Major Carriers out there off Full Service Lounges like a couple of the RV Transport Companies do??

At Hoosier.......the basement of their building was a Huge Drivers lounge....Had a little Kitchenette area, a TV Room, a Bunkhouse with like 1/2 a dozen bunk beds, and a Bathroom area with 3 Shower Stalls.

I believe Horizon had sort of a Similar Set Up.............

Just wondering if the Major Expedite Carriers took care of their Contractors in the same way when they were there at their Main Headquarters...............

Hooser and Horizon the RV carriers? I can see them having a bunk area...must get cramped sleeping in that P/U truck....I'd just have a discount at a local motel and get them a room for the night....

So, is the Load 1 lounge [which is almost as nice as in the photo] been ruined in the 3 years since it was created? Last time I peeked in, it still looked pretty nice.

Nope and don't think anything has been stolen either.

Calling it a fact of life pretty much states it will always happen every time.
