Told by night dispatch to cook the books, and that I am stupid for not doing it.

Now I DID get good miles before I complained.

So to the moron defending TransAm I have a truthful question for you.
How many felonies do you have?
Well I am sure there are so many TA drivers running around named TJ, with a hermit crab. So I'm sure we'll see each other. Maybe then you can ask me to my face, I highly doubt you will.

Upon my first time to take a couple days off, I sit for almost a week waiting for another truck (slip seating), and ultimately quit while waiting and found another job.

You sure see to be determined to keep questioning this driver's credibility, why is that?
What is so hard to comprehend? I work for them, for quite a while too, and I don't see these problems. Maybe instead of questioning my posts you should be moderating lugnut's post.

You don't need to be concerned with what I do or don't moderate.

.....and I don't see these problems

You don't have a problem with night/weekend dispatch? Dude, I talk to every TransAm driver I meet either in person, or on the CB. All of them hate night dispatch.

They have never had you runn illgal?

And still, how many felonies do you have? When I was in Olathe last I met several drivers. All had a list of felonies except one. He only had one felony for trafficking.

Whether drivers have felonies or not really aren't relevant here. Whatever happened with a driver in the past, is in the past.

Let's keep this on topic and quit being concerned with who does or doesn't have felonies.

I have no felonies. And the only people I talk to in night dispatch is road assist, and thats if I absolutely have to. Otherwise I tell them to #### off, next time you have to call soon as they pick up say this, "Can you put me thru to Rockwall?" You will have a much better time.

Why? There's nothing in what he wrote that warrants moderation.

I would consider it inflammatory, of course I guess the rules only apply when you want them to?

Not necessarily. He didn't call you any names. He only questioned your criminal record, obviously to imply that Trans-Am is such a lowlife outfit that they can only get felons to drive for them.

As I said before, if YOU are happy there, why bother dignifying him with any more of your time?

Yeah I drive a Swift truck

It means she's slow
It's a typical company truck
It's just all show and no go

I'm gettin' passed by Yella
And even Overnite
I'm gettin' passed by ever' body in sight
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight

No, my hometown's nowhere in sight
And if you think I'm pissed off
You're right
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight


Love pissing off those trucking company insiders.
