In Progress TRUCK STRIKE, GA

about time sombody went on strike and I really hope somthing good comes out of it...

 

It's about #### time someone stepped up to the plate. I'll see how much money I have and try and get to Wallyworld ASAP to get some poster board and markers. I'm behind it all the way!

 

Good for them.

Is this a current story?

 

I've been hearing Apr.1-3 on the CB all day,but then I also hear Apr.3-7,Mar.24,Mar.24-27.CAN SOMEBODY MAKE UP MY MIND PLEASE!!!

 

They are all seperate groups. We arn't the only ones p.o.'d

Granted everyone on one day would be great but it's not necesary. And it could get the later ones even more coverage. I think everyone arund here is counting on the 24th

 

If you're going to make signs, could you please get the spelling correct? That news report was embarrassing! "Fuel To High"???? WTF is that?????

 

i just took a gander at the landstar loadboard and there are 2000-3000 more loads posted on there than usual. That can be because 1. more loads coming on line or 2. truck drivers are taking a vacation. I'm enclined to say its looking like vacation time. The number of loads have gone up in the last 3 days. It has started, hopefully the govt will wake up and do something about the fuel prices. "VACATION ON TRUCKERS"

Glad to see CNN is doing a report on the issues we are facing. And hats off to the guys in Georgia for making a stand. I hope this keeps growing all across America! I had a trucking company owner in Georgia call me today about our convoy next month. He wants to come up for ours and then plan one to DC. Time to stand together!!! Keep it up!!

 

I have contacted the local media in Toledo OH and sent them a link to this string...all 4 channels
I suggest everyone else do the same...simply e-mail a link to this or any of the other strings discussing the strike...Georgia is already parked, Middle Georgia anyway...Check out the Fox24 video string
