Chill Joe! Can't you read the joking in that? You know REAL Money as everyone knows truckers don't make anything worth betting with? See the joke? ROFL!
Same goes for the CB Radio in a truck stop. A couple of days ago a CB'r was running his mouth on his radio. As most of you probably know, TA in Amarillo has police patrol who have CB Radio's. A officer told him to knock it off, and the driver made a smart a.. remark. The officer again ask him to quit. The driver didn't believe him and told the person claiming to be a police officer come to his truck so he could beat the s... out of him. So, the other driver being a police officer should up for the brawl. The driver making the smart a.. comments ended up with a very long 34 in lock up. As the officer left he warned, other drivers to keep the peace.
I would think that even the liberal media in our country would have a field day with the way some the companies out here are trying to treat drivers. Not just with idling laws, but with poor pay, under-trained drivers and being forced to drive unsafe, raggety equipment. Fox news might be one of the only national news companies willing to cover it, and that's a stretch. Possibly on a local news level it may work.
just take a girlfriend or wife with you. You can build up air pressure inside the truck pretty fast, cause we all know they never shut up. =)
So this is what a dead man walking looks like! You know if his wife or GF OR a female driving friend sees this he's dead!
You have to understand the Liberal mindset ... it's only an issue when it suits them politically. "Working class" usually means union, not non-union.
No one cares about truck drivers anymore. All they care about is getting their freight. If you die, it is just 1 more person to not have to feed and the government can go after your family for your possessions and force them to pay taxes. This is why I am getting out. I'm tired of working for nothing...
