    I haven't read every page. But it is entirely possible. I would not drive for any company that has a camera facing into the cab of the truck. Sure it is only supposed to come on for hard-braking, or some other major event, but we all know mistakes happen. And that's what they'll say. It was all a big mistake. "We really did not intend to record you having sex with your girlfriend.. etc." It can and will happen.

    I drove for a charter bus company that had these. But I did not live on the bus, I tried not to anyway.

    Ummm a Teamster is the equivalent to The National Association of Letter Carriers, American Postal Workers Union, etc etc ... it's just a name that was coined onto truck drivers.

    From Wikipedia;
    Originally, the term "teamster" referred to a person who drove a team of draft animals, usually a wagon drawn by oxen, horses, or mules.

    From Dictionary.com;
    1. a person who drives a team or a truck for hauling, especially as an occupation.

    2. a member of the Teamsters Union.

    "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"

    Ummm...no you were not...You were NOT in MY union...Postal workers do not and have NEVER been Teamsters..You shot your mouth off about the Teamsters and yet you were never a member of that particular union. And I am a steward...Any other comments..??? And while your complaining about unions in Florida, perhaps you could ask the Florida Dept. Of Corrections employees about how THEY feel about about the Teamsters. Funny how they just joined us by an overwhelming margin and we helped them defeat the "privatization" of the prison system, thus saving their jobs...How about that.."Bub"..????

    Privatization is a great thing, get the gov. out of the way is always a good thing. Wonder how much $$$ you help cost a state that is already broke? O that's right it's only taxpayer money doesn't really hurt to spend as much as gov. wants, just take more from working people when they need more, right? Thank God i live in a right to work state!!!
