    I really want to get rid of these crayon eating window lickers out of dispatch. Union or not, it will not fix this.

    I'm a Conway P&D driver with a question for other P&D drivers.

    Are Linehaul drivers whiney little prima-donnas everywhere, or just at my terminal? It amazes me the bs complaints and the way they expect us to clean up after them. Maybe it just here at Conway. I don't know.

    I know some people. This could likely be arranged, for a price of course. . .:biggrin_25524::biggrin_2559:

    Hell yeah we are a bunch of whiney prima-donnas. Especially me.

    My truck runs too slow, my trailers are too heavy, my trailers are too light, my trailers are too long, weigh station suck, four wheeler traffic sucks, it is too hot and my AC doesn't work, my dispatchers need to be replaced, quit calling me on my days off.

    The list goes on and on. Life is tough being a linedriver.

    My biggest pet peeve is spit bottles and drivers not leaving me any fuel to complete my run. I know some guys cry about smokers... Doesn't bother me.

    I just got yelled at by a P&D driver. "What is up with your mirrors? You don't wash them?".

    Nope. Don't wash them. I don't even use them... Especially while backing. I just go until it sounds expensive. That is how I put the trailers in.
