    Economics 101

    I named my Garmin, Donny. Every time it would say "recalculating", I would reply " shut the f**k Donny". After getting a GPS I quit buying analog city maps. I still kept my vast collection of city maps though. I have noticed since the popularity of GPS' has grown and is now common place in...

    No More Toll Receipts

    My carrier announced the following earlier this week: Starting 11/1, you will no longer be required to submit receipts for shipments where toll reimbursement has been approved by dispatch. Our systems will automatically calculate the toll costs based on your truck size and the shipment’s loaded...

    Canada Canadian Forum

    This is quite bizarre! What are the odds of this happening. I just finished replying to Turtle's post and saw I had a notification that TDave posted in the Panther Forum.

    Canada Canadian Forum

    What about the Panther Forum? There seems to be a decline in active Panther expediters here on EO, resulting in a near dead Panther Forum. The last post was July 9, 2015 and I believe that was entered by a Canadian.

    Will Hold Time ever improve at Panther?

    But, but, Hawk, you have it all wrong. When I'm on hold the nice lady tells me over the crappy background music that my call is important. The nice lady wouldn't lie.

    An autum in Michigan tradition

    The title of this thread led me to believe it was about the Lions starting the season 1-6 again.

    anybody hearing the Clinton lies

    She doesn't have to be a good presidential candidate. She will be the democratic nominee and most likely our next president. The people that will vote for her don't care whether she's a good candidate, a liar, a murder etc. She's woman and a democrat, that's all that really matters.

    It's not so much about being patient but more about totally embracing the stupidity.

    Fold Out, Wall Mount Bed

    I'm 5'10' and have a custom mattress that is 70" long or 5'10". My bed is installed cross-wise and is hinged to a walk/crawl through bulkhead behind the driver's seat. 70 inches isn't quite enough for me to stretch out. It works fine when loaded but when empty I like to stretch out. I added...

    Tipping

    I'm with Xiggi on this one. I shower at Flying Pilots. If I've got a dollar bill or loose change, I will leave it. What I would really like to do at Flying Pilots is leave a tip for the person that takes care of the car fuel islands. If the paper towel dispenser was correctly reloaded (or...

    You didn't spend 4 years on hold trying to get signed on again did you?

    Will Hold Time ever improve at Panther?

    I'm OOS again. Yesterday things got really stupid, one dry run and later last night I got dinged for a refusal. I missed the 8 hour rule by one hour and the 40% deadhead rule by 6%. When things get stupid, it usually comes in 3's so I figured I'm better off OOS. Besides, I have a funeral to...

    The Power of FaceBook

    Yeah, it was probably his daughter. I still like to believe it was Tom. I guess just because you're dead doesn't mean you have to give up your FB account. Kinda of a high tech, modern day Ouija Board.

    The Power of FaceBook

    A friend of mine died yesterday. This evening I posted something on his FB page. Minutes later he "Liked" it.

    Learning

    Would it not always be necessary to chock the wheels when there is a chance a forklift operator could plow right through the parking brake. With the transmission in neutral your second line of holding power is gone. Your van just rolled into the flammable storage cabinet next to the building...
