Folks: I'd read a lot deaper than the above provided link on this subject!!

Your "nerves" are not the issue here. The blink'in lights are to wake you and other folks to the fact summpin's happin'n ahead. Not rocket science!! When you see blink'in lights you may want to put your flag up and pay tention.

Lots of folks CHOOSE to complicate the simple. The folks that have sat for ten seconds longer than the think they should seem to call dispatch and feel that the dispatcher should crap some freight for them. DON'T WORK THAT WAY!!! It's not Burger King, this business isn't. Wake up fools!!!

Atta boy Rich!!

I've heard numbers from 25K to 75K severance for those poor souls bantered about, plus, retraining funds etc. Now, I don't know if performance I have observed from the dock workers is indicitive of the rest of that mob, but, i'd be hard pressed to offer two-bits before I sent them down the road.

I'd say he's too nice of an owner, to pay 65% and have a problem with that. 65% of gross is good, considering you have nothing invested but the shirt on your back. Now, if it's a junk truck, or there are other things wrong with this program you didn't share, you probably should go to work.

You are so correct Rich, unfortunately, once they switch, they'll find out they have to work hard and smart to make it there too. Ain't no free lunch!!

After reading some of the posts, how would you like to have the driver in the truck, let alone what the dogs might get after?

TENHAWK, as I remember, I ran with both you and your neff for better than half the whole big month you were here. YOU were in the machine maybe 11 - 12 days. The truck did a meager 24K that month (was it July)and ran somewhere 13k miles. Now, if you weren't happy with your situation, you...

No Larry, You just have to be in the truck a little bit.

We have used the Corporate Lodging for some time now. Most recent trip included a $27 night in Needles, CA and a week at $75 a nite in a Holiday Inn in downtown Burbank, CA. Been good to us.

Hey tec, me too!!!! Maybe they'll get over the big trucks(and drive one that is sensible) no big payment. Find a tree and rest(no apu heartburn) and learn to work around and with the bean counters in this industry. Probably won't happen, I guess. Pucker factor is high, listening to stories...

Well..... cough, cough. Quit posting. It'll be ok. Quit threatning, just do it the jarhead way. Quit posting!!

Broom, i'd find some housing deals $45 is way too much. Winter, you don't need a room. Get a bunk warmer. A little tuff getting up mornings, and, a little tuff getting the truck started sometimes but, if it's not lower than -10 it should start. You'd probably have better health in that...

Hey Beach: I'd say that, after reading this, and other posts of yours, i'd just call you're owner up and tell him/her, I am not responsible financially (I cannot buy even a couple loads worth of fuel). I am not as good a driver as I portrayed to you (I cannot shift a transmission, or, drive...

tanks cheri!!!

Need you to understand, i'm not pick'in wit your deal here, but, I can't imagine what that camper will be like after cooking fairly regularly in a small space like that in a few months. And, showering in a small space with the moisture that accumulates from that, not to mention having to deal...

I'm kinda wonder'in how many rooms you could'a rented for the cost, plus, the dh for repair, plus the heartburn. Don't know about you, but, the heartburn would be the large cost item in this list for me. I still just, find a tree, park cross wind, and enjoy. Or, if it's really tuff out, just...

Should have clarified, when they are in the truck, and not at the house for some reason.

Or, just go away!
