    T-mobile

    I made the switch from Verizon. So far very happy. Cut my bill by about a hundred dollars a month. Got a unlocked phone Moto G at Amazon for $179. Took it to T-Mobile with no contract. I should say now that I am retired, I am fortunate to be in a good coverage area for T- Mobile. If I was still...

    Cab Card Memories

    The FECC QC units had no card slots. The charges were just deducted from our Comchek account.

    Cab Card Memories

    Anyone remember "Cab Card"? It was the personal messaging service we could use on the Qualcomm. You could use funds from your Comchek account to send text messages. This may still be available through some carriers, and I understand "Cab Card" prepaid cards may still be sold at truckstops...

    Help with bentz sleeper

    To the best of my knowledge Bentz published none of the things you are interested in. As you know they folded in about 2007. Don Bentz opened his own facility DBA Bolt transportation products. He would be your best source of information. Don Bentz Bolt Transportation Products 4532 Allen...

    Profound Differences

    As a former O/O with FECC I know it is better to leave contact with the customer up to those who are trained with the diplomacy required. Granted most of us will say and do the right thing. Then there are the small percentage who would become argumentative and could destroy a valued account. It...

    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    That stupid reporter sits in her cubicle and thinks 7 hours is a long shift. Give me a break! It appears other newspapers are running her story with the same inflaming headline.

    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    The driver drove 7 Hours out of the 11 allowed. Boy you talk about "Media Spin". It`s a real stretch to call this a "long shift"

    Wish I had known about this site when I was vanning. This idea was rattling around in my brain for years. I was thinking in terms of all us Expeditors crisscrossing the country. We could be sharing accommodations. Never could figure out how you would weed out the riffraff. Should have turned the...

    Roku Stick VS Chromecast

    Too many boxes and sticks!!!! This is insane. There should be a universal one connected to the internet. Then you connect to what you want to watch. What if every web site you visit required you to have their box/device to connect? What if every TV Channel wanted a separate box?

    Flat rate???

    Over the years the ability to negotiate has come and gone. What it boils down to is, dispatchers have to exculate up the chain of command for upping the rate it takes to cover the load. My advise is to not roll over dead if the $ do not make sense. Chances are they make no sense to anyone else.
