    They must be contracting out some of your linehaul runs. The Crash, Roll, and Stunt Team pulled a few here and there for us.

    We have - for the time being - a contract for team R+L freight. If our service doesn't stop sucking we will lose it in the not to distant future.

    Some days you have to be a jerk and just laugh at somebody else's misfortune. I'm at the Peelot ,actually going pee(inside...in the restroom.....for reals) and this guy comes up to the urinal next to me and unloads. Mid pee, he lets loose with a pretty big gasser and half way through his toot it sounds like.......There was an obstruction....... And all the sudden he turns around and flies into one of the Johns and sounded like he doing his best to find Jeez us. lol.

    He might have had a bad day , but he sure made mine. Still laughing about it 12 hours later.

    R+L dropped CRST because they were taking 2 days to do 9 hour runs and guaranteed shipments were missing service.

    It doesn't take much to improve on that.

    1800 mile week and I get to sit until Monday for a massive 400 mile run. beyond irritating.

    Schneider's up for that challenge.

    Couple of weeks ago I "failed" a guy on soft skills - primarily understanding of the HOS and computing hours remaining on 8/11/14/70. Guy "passed" his "final exam" last week. He's called me 4 times already with questions on the elog and hos. Long term he will become a good driver, but for the next 3 months he's a walking service failure.

    Is CRST one of those where two students train each other?
