    Come on drivers... we have got to try and stick together and see if we can get something done about this fuel , etc.
    We can do it. I say just a couple of days together will help. I,m sure we can afford calling in sick for a few days back to back and not running.
    it will help us all in home heating, food, keeping our trucks running , and alot more > like showing then dam goverment or oil tikes enought is enought
    What pisses me off is you read in paper how much proffit they make and its in the billions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Let give it a try before we loose our homes too.

    When I was otr, the red racer company i was with was always trying to get us to conserve fuel, and now have goverened theyre trucks even lower. You'd think with the skyrocketing of fuel price, all co's would want to get with each other and o ops , pick a friggin week, and shut down. Or better yet, stop runnin weekends for a bit. Making freight much slower and mucho less fuel used, ah who knows.
