    Well, FXF is looking like their making the move. Never thought that would happen. Now it's got CWF guys thinking of doing it.

    Bulk containers require ID numbers whether empty or full, unless you have paperwork showing they've been cleaned and purged.

    That is if that is the only freight on the truck. Otherwise, they not needed.

    It's legal to show them anyway if it makes you feel better though, or perhaps you're not sure about the weight. That's perfectly legal as long as the number is representative of the cargo.

    18.25 hours of overtime this week. Can't complain, It was actually a really smooth 58 hour week, Which is very random. Time off is always nice, but wasn't drained and did not waste away the weekend sleeping.


    Good wording, 60 hour reset, have to steal that. Indeed awesome.

    I did a six punch yesterday and maybe this weekend depending how the week goes. Unless I make plans, but most of my friends are married, have kids or don't go out any more

    Catching up on a day's worth of TTR. I really want to get on board with the whole union discussion, but using this side of the TTR board is the absolute worst place to do it. Some of you guys should join us on FB... we could create an unofficial thread or page on there where we could throw some of these topics on there. Shoot me or Shaggy a PM, neither of us should have a problem adding you.
     
    Shaggy Thanks this.

    We aren't really fighting about the Union . just asking if they voted it in. I knew fxf was. That's a shocker.
