    My understanding, and my tax lady goofed this up for us this last year, is that since you are a highway transportation employee (not the right name I am sure) that you pay taxes in your home state... Where ever that might be.

    A couple here and there I didn't worry too much about. But when it became common at any one place, I started asking for it. Let's the company know they may want to have a chat with them.

    That's the way it was with WS out of Montana. I didn't pay tax there. Funny, all my life I did my taxes but not as an employee. All new to me ... lol

    Red is after it has recorded something and will download at night. So if you nudge the camera and it grabs a clip, then it's red all day.

    Guess I better get use to them... They are only 50 miles from my home now so it will make for a good customer for me to get some drive by time... And the miles are not bad once you get out of that tight yard.

    Well, I think the whole thing is really silly and in all honesty, I'm not real comfortable with it. I figure if you don't trust me to drive the truck, don't hire me. I let my record speak for itself and should something happen, it's not gonna be do to anything I did.

    Front facing cameras I'm all for. In fact I'll likely get one of my own to have my own copy of things out there.

    ROFLMAO ... tell ya what skippy, I'll buy you a truck instead. ;)

    For me? A nice motor home with a trailer and a new HOG on it. :)
    I normally never play the lottery. Just don't have that kind of luck. But for over half a billion? I figure that's worth 20 or 30 quick picks.
     
    tlopez99 Thanks this.
