Soooo, we have some customers requiring gloves be worn? So they think gloves will protect you from spreading the virus? They won't. If you're wearing gloves, and you touch anything that has coronavirus (or any other cooties) on it, then everything those gloves touch after that will then also...

You go where the freight goes. If you live in the freight lanes, like Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, you can get home more often, because so much freight goes into those areas. I live in western Kentucky and I last left home to go in service on Oct 14th.

Do you have some insight into the administration of the forums that I'm not aware of? The reason I ask is, even though I haven't been here as long as you, I do know that threatening a forum member will get your ass banned in a heartbeat. I also know that popping into a thread and trying to...

You may very well end up liking it there. Many people do. But at the very least, you'll definitely know what you don't like, and will be looking for another carrier that will be a better fit.

Well, the only one that I know for sure who has trucks that stay local would be Load One, the carrier that I'm with. But I have heard drivers with other carriers talk about staying local or there are other drivers with their carriers who do. I know Panther used to have local drivers, but I don't...

Well, it's a Canadian science-fiction horror film, shot mostly in Montreal and Toronto. So how good can it be? :JC-hysterical: I don't really recommend it. It is a classic, in that sci-fi horror genre, and it did have some creative special effects. The big finale money shot of the head...

Every carrier is different, and what works for one might not work for another. But whether I liked them or not didn't matter (hated them), the main thing was that I learned the rules well enough to make money and remain relatively stress free (once I learned how to use the rules in my favor)...

But, nobody cares what Brett Baier has to say. He doesn't make policy and he has no influence on those who do. What he says is only noteworthy because he's on Fox and he criticized The Trump, therefore, "neener, neener!" Yes, he's correct. He's a veritable genius, he is. Things like that...

There are a few expedite carriers in Michigan that will keep you local if that's what you want. My carrier has several trucks and vans that run local, within 200 miles, within 500, etc. There is a lot of local freight that many drivers will not do, because they're looking for the long miles...

That's tellin him. :JC-hysterical: I used to drive a van with them, and I'm really too many years removed to give any kind of salient advice, other than to learn the rules. I really don't want to make a comment such as, "they will screw you over, but at least they will screw you by the...

Done the same? You mean clutch our pearls and lose our partisan minds over what is essentially fake news spin over the first half of a sentence where the second half of the sentence never gets reported because that would put the pearl-clutching comment in context? Because we instead choose to...

I can spell. I just can't type, and I refuse to proofread.

Who told you that? Currently, freight volumes are down 50-75 percent.

The Moot Vaccine. That's onions layers thick.

OK... A) Holy crap, Wuhan Batman! and B) You know this means no more gay sex, right?

Somebody, in Connecticut I think it was, tested wastewater (sewage) and found WAY more coronavirus than they expected, based on the number of known infections. They concluded that there are many, many more people infected than have been diagnosed. It also shows that people poop a really lot of...

Theoretically, it should. For the big box stores in particular, it should reduce the number of people shopping in public (and thereby reduce the risk of spreading the virus) by eliminating the people who are in there explicitly to buy things that aren't essential items. I might take issue with...

A few words on prediction models.... Prediction models, whether they are economic, corporate, climate change, or coronavirus, are not meant to be predictive, much less accurate. Prediction models are useful, but they're not accurate. Probably 95% of the public, and clearly 100% of the media...
