    This place is more for the guys with a low paying OTR job to move up into. If you're making big bucks with a good bid line run for one of the major LTL's it'd be a step back in your career. I'm content for the most part, but jeez the rules and babysitting this place keeps wanting to add onto the drivers gets old.

    You work the same exact number of days on both programs. Should make low 90s on either. The benefit to the 6/3 is your weekend time off every month.

    But that's just it. It wouldn't go through where he was because he had no service. He had to get a few miles down the road before it did go through, and of course by then he was on line 3 so Walmart's safety staff mistakenly thought he was texting while driving.

    Worse yet, in a situation like that one has no means to prove they weren't.

    That's one of their selling points" of cameras, the camera would prove he wasn't on it. Just is all B.S. for the safest fleet in the country. How did ups beat the camera issue?

    I hauled a U.P.S. load and they told me they fought and beat cameras going into their trucks because of the 4th amendment. This was U.P.S. Des Moines. Bravo, gents.

    I always make sure that text goes through or restarting my iPhone usually cancels it if I'm in a bad area before I start driving. They're not playing around on the text issue so I rarely even text my wife during the day while when I'm stopped.

    You can go to your setting on a iPhone and their is a setting to cancel text messages if they're not going through
