    How Many Filter Water?

    I keep a gallon's worth of water in small gatorage bottles in my fridge. When I visit family and friends I fill up with tap water. Away from civilization, I refill the bottles from one gallon jugs that I purchase. I have a survival style filter that I keep in my go-bag for emergencies...

    Something I like to hear. I was in the shipping office waiting on paperwork to sign. One shipping clerk was on the phone setting up more orders with a carrier. In the background, I could hear the theme song from "The Adams Family". eb

    I had one of them chase me down in a parking lot the last time I was in Chicago (the time I was first out from Monday to Thursday). The first thing out of his mouth was how I managed to pay for my fuel. He payed for the fuel, and the company owned the van. He was driving 2500-3000 miles a...

    10 psi

    My front end feels real sloppy if I go down 10 psi in the front. Not so noticeable a difference in mpg. 35 down to 25 would be noticeable, but not at the pressures we run. eb

    Professionalism

    Also try doing a general forum search for "uniform". A little bit to weed through, but there are related discussions. I wouldn't get hung up on your age. You project "underaged" if you keep it in the back of your mind. Act like you belong there, and no one will notice. eb

    Professionalism

    I try to be organized and presentable. I have all my load information on a single form that also includes all the carrier's information, like phone and fax numbers, and other information that the company includes in their contact information on their website. This way I have something I can...

    I'm disappointed that I missed everyone at the truck show but work on the van took priority. The van runs sooo much smoother and quieter with new brakes and driveshaft support bearings. eb

    I might have been one of them on that list. I brought a load into the area last night from Chicago. I moved out of the area after getting some sleep. I got a 30 miler to keep the wheels turning, but it delivered to a closed warehouse. So I sit awaiting resolution. I think it has something...
