DOT New entry audit

you forgot your drivers file needs to be in a locked cabinette of some sort

there is my contribution, now i can get back to annoying you.

 

Yes. They look at it as a full company.

 

You also have to have accident records files and vehicle maintenance records files. Pretty easy to get all the forms you need in two booklets . . . One on WI DOT website and one on FMCSA's website. Both explain the records you have to keep and even provide the forms you will need, complete with driver file, vehicle file, and everything else you will need.

 

So, Why does it upset you so much that Hanadarko has the luxury of owning his truck outright and being able to spend as much money on it as he wants to without fear of missing a truck payment of going broke?

He seems to want to just ace the audit and want's to be prepared for whatever they might ask for....Is that somehow offensive to you?

I have spoken with Hanadarko a number of times on the phone and have found him to be a very smart guy and quite personable so I wonder where you get that he is difficult to deal with.

He's not interested in hauling for no money and is willing to wait till he finds his niche so that he doesn't have to haul for nothing like so many of you guys out here do...

I've seen lots of guys spend thousands more than their truck is worth just because they want to....Is that a problem for you?

If so...Why?

It's his money and his time and more importantly it's HIS truck! Not his and the banks...HIS!
If he has no business sense, How do you suppose he has enough money to do what you only wish you could do?
You Know....Own the truck free and clear and be able to do with it what you please.

If he decides to chop the top off of it and fill it with dirt and plant flowers in it, It's his business!

Yes....Yes it does!

It shows me that he's not a chump and that he is not willing to settle for the crap that most of these companies call rates.
The fact that you seem to think it's your business tell us a lot about you!

So, It looks to me like you woke up this morning and realized how bad your life sucks and decided to lash out at someone that has his act together and has afforded himself the luxury of being able to run his business in his own terms.

 

HAHA... owey, i'm hurt

 

I think what MM is getting at is he is tired of Hanadarko making posts and spending all this time, being puffed up about being a "true" owner operator and all he really has is a old truck, bunch of bills, no trailer and -- wait for it -- NO REVENUE, because he has his paid for rig parked. Get this, Hanadarko hasn't even run and he has already changed his insurance. Well, if you can believe his posts.
