    Not stuck in traffic as in I cannot complete the load. I meant since I get paid by the mile I like to keep rolling for many miles instead of waiting two hours for the traffic to clear up while my elog clock is ticking away. I still make the delivery but I have no time to even eat while the company collects the big check. I bet those tough NYC runs make the company more money while I am fixed on a set earning per mile.

    Its not hard to figure out if the dock is nearly impossible or not... Most loads that pickup or deliver in downtown old liberal cities with high taxes have tight docks. Any unknown suburb or consevative city is likely to have a dock that is made for 53 foot trailers.

    You should spend a day with your dispatcher , sitting quiet in a corner and just watch how he's trying to find A LOAD for all he's drivers . I am willing to bet my entire annual salary that you will change your mind about dispatchers !

    Oh but I have spent many days with my dispatcher while my truck is in their shop being worked on! Unlike most people, I know what I am talking about instead of spreading false rumors based on emotions instead of logic.

    don't be too full of yourself.....when you start saying you cannot make any more improvements, you are an arse. every day you will learn more and more and add to your skill level.

    right now, i view is as an arse so full of himself, it sickens me. it is people like you, that think you know what you are doing, are a danger to all of us and the public at large.


    please believe me, i had wanted to say that long, long ago....but held back...now...all bets are off, on this all too full of himself steering wheel holder.

    OH.... and by the way. There are a lot of drivers that take their time backing, or require a lot of pull up's. Not everyone has a keen sense of depth perception, and the physics of backing. But the good driver will eventually put it where it needs to be without hitting things. The only thing that matters is that the drivers gets a signature on the BOL!!!!!

    Grats on your expert backing........................but nobody really gives a crap but you.
     
    Keithdabarber and G.Anthony Thank this.

    Keep thinking that buddy. I wish there was an ignore feature here. Every time one of you assume that I am inexperienced I provide a fact to back up my experience and then you guys get upset when I mention my expertise. You say I cannot back, I tell you I can, then you call me an arse. I learned to not listen to people like you who just flock to the lemmings. People like me are the ones that do great things and succeed. Soon all of you will wonder how I can have a brand new truck with all of the bells and whistles sparkling clean after a rainstorm and making three times more than you and you will ask how I do it, what I did differently and here you are witnessing how I make things happen and you can only insult what is foreign to your follower's mindset brainwashed into your by the government and your parents.

    Be nice, and you will find this forum pretty friendly. Act like a tool......and you will find it about as warm as a prison shower.
