Strike Really Coming ?

Not because I'm tight on hours, BUT, !!!

I'm on strike til Monday morning.

 

Thats why truck driving companies are going on strike and not these crazy self sintered....selfish...####y...only for they self drivers....

 

I like tossing out the log books and logging off the elogs. Less work that way.

 

We could push for that...but I doubt if we get 100 truckers to do that

 

The sad thing is that trucking companies (competitors) came together before drivers did

 

I almost had to go get my decoder ring to translate this so I could understand it.

If you want a strike, come up with some well reasoned arguments for it, instead of the typical garbage used for justification. Every time the scuttlebutt starts about a strike, it's always some idiotic idea that just makes us look like a bunch of yahoos. So instead of railing about how unfair split speed limits are, or high fuel prices, or excess regulation (not that these aren't important issues); how about coming up with a thoughtful solution to an well-documented problem to rally behind. The rhetoric needs to resonate with the public if a strike will ever be successful. But most likely every attempted strike will continue to demonstrate a depth of thought about as deep as spilled fuel.

How about IF the strike happen you be on board and support your fellow drivers and the team...I cant believe how many people complain about it then to be for it to help fix the problem. ...THATS HOW THE GOVERMENT WINNING....KEEPING US SEPERATED

 

When the talk was striking because of split speeds, I tried every time I heard a conversation about to redirect the energy to something more productive, like drivers being responsible for unloading. That's a far bigger and more important issue. But since the vast majority of strike talkers are US Marshal-calling lunch counter denizens, it was a fruitless endeavor. I'll support a well reasoned plan, but the back row BS that drives most of this talk? Go ahead a look the fool, but I'm not getting on board with a bunch of idiots.
