    CCJ Five Flashiest Fleets 2014!

    I voted for Load 1, even though John Elliot ignores my suggestion to add a bit of sparkle to the logo, lol. Not talking Liberace-threw-up gaudy, ok, just a bit of restrained metalflake glitter, so it's, you know: flashy. In a classy way. :D If those Cablevision vans travel in convoy, we're in...

    Phones Bluetooth

    I can't tolerate anything on my head, and some units are strictly for right handed people, so my best find is the Blue Ant. Small, and excellent even in a very noisy environment.

    Former Arrow Trucking CEO Arrested In DallasFin

    Re: Former Arrow Trucking CEO Arrested In Dallas DOT & FMCSA are "all about" preventing the chameleon carriers who are hiding their safety & violations records, but CEOs like Peilsticker ruin just as many lives as a whole fleet of trucks hurtling down the Grapevine without brakes. When [no -...

    It's not going to stop

    This country allows you the freedom to leave, and if you believe what you write about this country, you should.

    Why Is There No Outrage About This Police Shooting?

    I wouldn't call the demand to hold LEOs accountable a "liberal utopian agenda", but if it is, count me in.

    Another n00b

    Welcome! 1: Most expedite carriers operate by contracting with the truck owners [independent contractors. Some of those owners may be [or become] fleet owners, hiring drivers [also independent contractors] to drive their trucks. This allows the carrier to save on asset costs & employee benefits...

    Hey buddy, can you spare a card?

    For a 5 year old boy with a brain tumor? Quinn's mom is a friend of my daughter, and she says he loves nothing more than getting cards from "faraway places". [He lives in Brook Park, Ohio, so to him, Toledo is a faraway place, lol]. You can check out his smiling mug on his facebook page, Hope...

    Former Arrow Trucking CEO Arrested In DallasFin

    Re: Former Arrow Trucking CEO Arrested In Dallas 2 questions: why did FMCSA not flag Peilsticker's wife & known associates, knowing he could be expected to use a 'front' to start another trucking/related business? Which he did, of course, twice. Why is someone whose bankruptcies [both...

    Detroit decay via Google Street view.

    Yes, It looks almost the same, but people were held accountable for [at least some of] the mismanagement & poor decisions that doomed NO [and btw: that middle photo looks like the house where I lived, in Kenner], but has anyone been held responsible for driving Detroit into the basement? I know...

    The Daytona Tortugas

    I think there's a lot of things more interesting than shooting ducks, but I've never had any reason to say it, so I didn't. I can't figure out why you have to disparage something that doesn't interest you, rather than say nothing.

    What if a driver is temporarily unfit to drive?

    Drivers cannot legally be penalized for declaring themselves unfit to drive, or the weather conditions unsafe, either. They can certainly be dispatched 'with prejudice' [AKA fired] if they play that card too many times, because neither should occur very often. And whatever their feelings, no...

    The Daytona Tortugas

    Here's hoping he doesn't suffer the same fate as his brother Titus, who was hit by something while taking a breath. The blow trapped the air inside, and caused 'buoyancy issues', or, as I call it: bubble butt. He has to live at Clearwater Marine Rescue, rising & falling like a perpetual drunk...

    Dear Expediters, help

    I mean no offense, but those drivers need to learn English. Some work doesn't require it, but our work involves interaction with the shippers & consignees. Inevitably,discrepancies occur, and drivers need to be able to communicate effectively to solve them.

    Are many retail jobs slowly coming to a end?

    Beginning in the 1980’s, the private sector began an effort that continues to this day to reduce the proportion of the cost of selling goods and services attributed to labor. This takes many forms, including limiting wage growth, outsourcing, union busting, sending jobs overseas, transferring...

    Address and stuff

    I've never seen the Tulip Tree address, always got 'US 41 N, Princeton', which sounds north of Princeton, and it isn't. Someone told me it used to be on 41, but then a new road was built between the plant & the road, [is that Tulip Tree?] but the address never changed, because 'everyone' already...
