No APU, 5 minute idle, 90+ degrees - is this legal?

I would tell them to route me to my home terminal. Or clean out my truck on home time and get it to the terminal. Be up front about where to turn it in. Do it on the Qualcom.

I they are a team? Companies will climb all over them self to get a team. Conway truck load will take you with 3 months. Check Crete etc. Even Swift if you need more experience.

 

Yes, they're a team.

 

Can we have an update?

 

It's still legal.

 

I'd like your comment but I don't want some fruity heart connected to your statement.

 

It would seem that the fruity hearts and 'like' have left us....

 

Fired? Werner would fire them for idling the truck anyway(if they came up with a working way to do it).

The bottom line for these mega carrier IS $$$... period. However, in many cases this isn't such a bad thing... Think of creative ways to cost them $$$. If everyone they treated bad did this, they wouldn't treat drivers like dirt... I realize this may be a new concept to you.

And I am employed, just not to some bottom feeder company that treats me like crap.

Few years ago I work for a guy that tried to get a driver arrested for stealing a truck. It didn't work. Driver just said he was verbally told to take the truck home and clean it out. Ended up being a bunch of drama only.

 

Why do people always want to exact revenge on the company? I mean I get quiting, I even understand the driving home part although I would hold the driver liable for the fuel, but why the" cost them money" or "sell of equipment"...........



As a side note did they just cook like an egg and expire or what? Jeez if you can't afford a motel might want to work somewhere else.

 

Because ANIMALS are way more important than some slimeball steering wheel holder!!!

It certainly appears that that is the way our legislators seem to think anyway. And company owners see us as subhuman, an unfortunate liability that isn't worth spit.

 

OOOH! You are a real man, my hero!

I guess that means the rest of us are pus....wimps, right?

I bet your truck doesn't have mirror heaters power steering or air ride seats either because you are such a real man.

No AM/FM?satelite radio or CD/MP3 player either.

After all, back in the good old days of trucking we didn't have any of that stuff either so why do we need it now?
