    Yes I seen that video him bashing me but didn't take offense to it.I said some bad things which I did apologize to him for it.I was angry at that time for the abandonment not what was said pertaining to him and the dispatchers.

    I think you need to stop watching social media pages and learn how to truck again. I see you've forgotten. And you're #### right I did provoke him. He's not one of us. He's not a driver. You can take up for him all you want, that's on you. I have no respect for him and I also don't care for the people who take up for him. Think of that how you will.

    "Before you speak, let your words pass through three gates.
    At the first gate, ask yourself, ‘Is it true?’
    At the second ask, ‘Is it necessary?’
    At the third gate ask ‘Is it kind?"

    there a fourth gate too. this one is to ask yourself, "does it need to be said by me?"

    Really ? .....you guys still don't get it , huh?
    Let me explain why abes episode was a good thing .....abe was a perfect example of a rookie ,chunky ,young ,gullible
    good hearted seemingly ,green horn trucker ,tricked into violating HOS laws ,then the public got see our fine poster child
    ( ...abe ? ,no offense brother ) .....bein talked down to ,belittled ,basically being chumped by some smuks.....if i had my family in the next lane ,at 60mph , 4:39 am ,....i would want to know about abe ,...how many other rookie drivers have folded under a more experience office boy heat vs dumb young fish rookie truck driver ( no offense ,u took 4 the team )
    ......now do you see why the public has right to know ? And the fact that the trucking industry has been degraded so
    much that it's doesn't pan out much so they seek young hearts for things like L/P deals ( ...should i say great deals ? )
    ...i don't know bout you ,but i think we scored one and used a perfect example ,why it's time to stand& push
    .....for regulated frght !!! ....no more late night lambamba circus rookie ,low paid , under the gun at 60mph ,40 tons of
    Equipment with me and my babies in the next lane over ? Worth raising a stink ? ....u becha !!!!!!

    Well said! I was thrilled to see this on the national news. The only way to change anything is via the media to bring it to the attention of million. The segment was positive for drivers and exposed on of the universal problems with the industry.

    What really blows me away is this...he had all these drivers standing behind him on that situation with night dispatch and then turns around and quits by abandoning the equipment...frankly he slapped everyone in the face...believe me I'm not sticking up for k&b whatsoever because they're garbage but he went about it he wrong way...

    I have to agree with Joe on this one. All Abe did was make those who truly want to be out here look bad. Nobody forced him to drive tired. He agreed to take the load, couldn't do it, and suffered the consequences, and then went on a camera and cried 'pity me'.
     
    Boy Howdey, bergy and joseph1135 Thank this.
