Like Dave says, it's nice to hear, so I'd print out the positive feedback, & mail it to the person/place that inspired it, too, adding a thanks for going above & beyond the job requirements. ;)

Sometimes it seems that the triggers are located where they will be tripped by a vehicle in the curb lane - who then turns right on the red light, anyway. But at least it gets triggered - one of my pet peeves is the driver who won't pull up far enough to trigger it! Granted, you can't pull up...

Ditto - especially the last one, which is something that could save a lot of time in a pinch. Thanks for the news we could use!:) :)

That was what the 'dying of thirst in the ocean' anology meant: there are trees, brazillions of them - but not a one that shades the parking spots! In a van, McDonald's is usually a good place to find shade, or WalMart. But not the truckstops, they're like public swimming pools: good luck...

That's a good question for "Ask the Recruiter"!

If you've been reading here awhile, then I hope you feel welcome to ask questions, add your opinion, toss in a joke now & then, even an occasional firecracker - keeping it lively, informative, and above all - civil, is what makes this site so great. It's a community, and that puts it far above...

What annoyed me about television, was anticipating an interesting, or funny program, then finding it so chopped by commercials, I couldn't enjoy it at all, so I just quit watching. All the teasers in the world can't persuade me to watch a program anymore. I'd have really enjoyed throwing it out...

Except for Terry's valid point, it sounds like y'all are doing a good job, encouraging the drivers, & not being greedy. But that said, why not ask your drivers what they would like? Nobody knows better than the person doing the job - and the bosses I would work hardest for are the ones who ask...

It apparently works - the Denver Police tested it, on the video, & it did exactly what it says it will do. Bet they make a mint selling it in Cleveland, Ohio, where drivers generate big bucks for the city, county, and state. We thought George Orwell's "1984" was science fiction, didn't we?

BigBusBob, hey! Good to see you back, even though you're not your usual fun self at this moment - but we all have days like that. And you've always brought a lot of info & laughs with you, so I say keep on posting! I'm at the Spartanburg TA at mm 63, though thought it was the Detroiter for a...

It's half a great idea - no silencer, lol. ;)

RE: PANTHER2 EXPLOSION IN NORMAL ILL .......... W Unless it's watching Pete Fountain's Half Fast Marching Band in a Mardi Gras parade! :7

Acronym, anagram - anyone could get confused, lol - but they are both mnemonics, anyway.... This is an example of the way my brain is so stuffed with useless trivia, that I can't remember the stuff I want, sometimes. Thanks - 'preciate it. :7

TeamCaffee just told me it's not open yet - everything looks ready, but no go. When I was there a few weeks ago, they were doing the final hiring, so maybe the delay has to do with that - can't get enough English speaking applicants, maybe?

And it's just about as funny as everything else that comes from the mouth of a drunk guy, too.

Thanks for the story, Hot Rod - it's a hard truth to accept. There isn't anything I can think of that's worth it, and considering what might have happened, it could have been much worse - you could have killed someone, you know. Based on the fact that you are enjoying waking up in the morning...

Welcome! If you can come to the Expo with Mrs James, that would be a great help to you both, because everything expediting will be there. Including some actual FUN! Without which, life just isn't any, well, - fun! ;)

See response #10.

Is that why you chose that avatar - because you want someone to call you "puppy face"? :P ;)

Maybe, on the other hand, it looks like the driver is determined to get the freight delivered, even if it takes a kayak to do it, lol ;)
