Yep I run within the law so I don't risk my lively hood. I learned early on there's no load worth my cdl. It's how I make my living. Why would I risk that just so I can brag about how I "get the job done". Your an idiot. The days of cowboy trucking are gone. Get with the times.

At years, you're still early on.
loose_leafs and Joetro Thank this. -
Look at Obamacare. Social Security. Immigration "reform"
No child left behind. Those genious laws were implemented to supposedly be for the good of all, yet all they have done is hurt the majority who were doing the right thing to begin with.
Also I gotta love it in Southern Wiscosin Monday night, I saw more big trucks in the ditch than 4 wheelers. That is becoming more and more common. That is something that never happened 10 years ago, even with the mega carriers. Two inches of snow, and all this chatter on the cb about how bad it was and time to shut down.
With the final rule for elogs, since it is inevitable, I think businesses and cities should be REQUIRED to have safe havens for trucks.
Until the parking problem is solved there should be no mandatory ruling.
And dont tell me to plan ahead for a job that is sometimes completely unplannable. -
So you never break the law huh. Yeah you are a good example LMAOJoetro, loose_leafs and stabob Thank this. -
Your 4 years is not a blanket statement or example to change and control those who came before you.Joetro Thanks this. -
No one cares about a twin stick because they stopped making them what 25 years ago?
No one cares how you ran back in 1972 because it's not relevant to today.
No one cares. Plain and simple. It doesn't impress anyone when you brag about not filling out a log book and running outlaw to "get the job done."archangelic peon Thanks this. -

I took me a couple of swift kicks in the rear a few years ago, a mere 9 years out here, to realize that my time on the road is not the Bible on truck driving.
I am not here to "impress" anyone. there will always be a bigger boy out there somewhere on the playground who will outdo me.
But I will not stand idly by and let those who have no appreciation or clue about their profession get snobby and uppity and ruin it for the rest of us.
I had an old crusty guy help me put chains on a couple weeks ago. i made an error in judgement and got stuck. I don't know everything.
Right "shut it down if you need chains". Let the reefer and truck run out of fuel. <----That right there is the mentality of the new breed. I was one too but i have graduated from that mentality.
I offered to buy that old guy dinner and coffee, he basically told me to "pay it forward", pass it on. If you were in my situation, would you still tell that old guy that his knowledge and experience beyond the last 5 years is irrelevant?Last edited: Nov 28, 2014
