    Press GET's B*tchSLAPED!!

    I think it's something about yet another conspiracy theory started by aliens who I won't name, to prove that Canadian women just don't get it unless American men can speak in plain English. Course I don't follow american politics, but seemed to me from the brief viewing I saw from my tv up here...

    Panther holding back O/O's

    I don't know about just discounting this particular conspiracy theory. I wondered the same thing about our carrier. I enter our financials into quickbooks, so I can see the gross revenue for each month, among other things. It was kinda eerie how close the gross revenue was each month. To me...

    Are You A Contractor or an Employee

    I have to agree with you Blizzard. In fact, I have no idea how some of the carriers get away with what they do. One that we know about even asks for official 'vacation request' forms to be submitted in advance of wanting time off for whatever. They expect you to take every load offer, even...

    Mapping Software

    Can anyone tell me how fast streets & trips (or whatever it's called) is, compared to the free 'mapquest' or 'googlemaps'? Or can anyone tell me another kind of software for mapping which is not full of ads, not bulky, not a ram pig, etc? Thanks for any tips!

    hover dam

    Speaking of Hoover.. did anyone see that tv show the other evening when they were talking about how long it would take the world to return to a place where it was never known to have contained humans, if all the humans were gone all at once? It was really interesting. There was a bit on the...

    companies charging fees to haul for them?

    That post was fairly recent, and very screwed up. I don't think anyone can know for sure exactly what the writer was talking about, but one thing is for sure, they were not understanding basic information. They seemed to be confusing one thing for another thing. The reference to the $1500 was...

    Need to assess the level of abuse we just endured!!

    I don't know if it's the same in US, but here, if the employee pays his own premiums for disability insurance, and ends up having to collect at some point, it is not taxed as taxable income. If the employer pays the premiums, the amounts collected at time of injury would be taxed, therefore many...

    Thanks Cheri! Don't know what was wrong (if anything) with that poor bat.. on a tree on the main street of a crowded downtown (touristy town up north).. right at eye level.. I never would've noticed (well it blended in with the bark, and well, there was SO much other stuff to look at!), but...

    Why such Doom and Gloom

    If you are going to drive for an 'owner', it seems to me that is a good way to try out the industry without a lot of risk or capital. I don't think it would be a big thing later, if you were to change your mind and go back to long hauling. If you were to buy a truck right now, you might be more...

    please help new to the biz

    It is always interesting how easy and simple things look on paper. Why don't you look into buying a nice, less expensive, used van to test the waters first?
