    I guess it was couple months ago, the last couple times i had been there, i always went straight there, and got there in the middle of the night. (that's the place where you check in at the window to the left of the scale, down by your feet right?)

    When i think of dairy in tipton, ca Im thinking of california dairys. Are we talking about the same place? Have not been there in long time. (last november i think) I can't remember their hours of operation. pretty nice place.....if it is the place im thinking of, take a right into the gate, and scale in to the left of the building. (the scale is flat on the ground, and i think i almost missed it) Are you taking milk to clovis?? (if you are get ready to roll!!!) ;)

    Yea I"ve been to laurel quite a few times the place sucks for loading and unloading, I talked to the loader, last time I was their they are building a new part so when you load you can just drive right in then drive right out.

    I.R.T. has installed 3 E-logs Testing them now to set them up for the end of this year to install in the rest of the fleet.... Also they have started turning all trucks back to 65 mph.. no exceptions. Trust but verify with safety.

    Oakley .43 cpm + 5 cpm (food grade hazmat only) + .03 cpm quarterly safety bonus = .51 cpm.. It's a no-brain-er... Ask an Oakley driver,see them at OJ'S or on the west coast all the time. They give you 90 days to get your hazmat.They pay for pump offs and the only person you have to wait on for pumping is you not some receiver.

    Just going along with the times, if they go all elog they "should"change the way they pay drivers. Or they will lose a lot of em.

    from what i heard. the owner of IRT. doesn't care about the drivers. so what makes you think they are going to change the way they are paying them?
