    I agree, along with drive thru test sites, definitely better

    You keep yourself safe. Get antimicrobial gloves, hand sanitizer, and some disinfectant. When you get out of your truck put the gloves on. Use only your pen, don’t share it. Keep your distance with the shipper, if you can avoid going in at all, do it. Place the BOL in a plastic folder or plastic bag. Before you get back to your truck, take off your gloves, and put hand sanitizer on. Disinfect the outside of plastic bag. Make your tractor your sanitary place. Nothing from outside goes inside other than your clothes which shouldn’t have anything on it unless someone coughed or sneezed on you. I’m in LTL and it has been a SOB trying to do this all day. I only have so many gloves and they’re in demand. But I do my best, and that’s all I can do. But I thank all of you for doing what your doing, and putting yourselves in harms way. Police and fireman do it everyday. This is our time to shine, and we need to step up to the place. May you and your families stay safe and healthy. Let’s keep our heads up and get through this.

    Omg. So much crap.



    I and my family are quarantined. Have been since Tuesday.

    This is nothing but the flu.

    It will effect people differently, I have a cough and chills, my wife is having flu issues, and so is one of my kids. All the rest are doing well.

    I have three employees also quarantined with their families, they are doing well.

    If you can stay working, work. Wash your hands, don't mingle with people and think about those who want to work but can't.


    And about cpap and bipap machines, they can be used as a form is a respirator. They can have o2 added into them, very simple and cheap to do. They need to be adjusted to be used as one. A respirator is nothing but an air pump.
