Getting bored...lol..just changed the oil on the generator, and checking the fluids on the van, and the tire pressures....While doing so, had an impossible conversation with a Indian-speaking All-State Sprinter driver. Couldn't understand a lick of words this guy was saying..Must be some real interesting conversations for their dispatch...lol...My pet-peeve: Why do companies hire people that cannot speak our language properly? I've seen customers call companies as the driver was standing there, trying to pick up a load, requesting a driver they can understand before. Calgon! Take me away!!! lol...

So if they are here legally you rather they not get a job and be on the government dole?

They most likely already are, 7 years tax free? Maybe? But my point is, why hire those that do not speak english. If they want to come here and better themselves, hats off to them. They have my blessing.But learn to speak our language first.They should conform to us, our way of living, not the other way around. Last time I checked, this was The United States of America.

Too busy praying for a load with some miles to it....Ironically enough, it's been over a year since I have seen Laredo....kinda odd, I guess....I sure could use one of those, with a return back up to make Christmas enjoyable about right now...

Oh didn't know he asked you to speak his language. Sounded like he was a nice guy just wanting to talk. You know the more he converses in English probably the better it will get.
