I hate it when that happens! I pull doubles and I once had that happen to me when I was hooking my rear trailer. I had to get the yard guys to...
I see their trucks rolling down the road all the time, so business must be good! All I know is that each of these companies have different...
Hah! Now that's funny. I dealt with an Illinois trooper a while back when I witnessed an accident and had to give a statement. Not nearly as...
No, I'm cool with OD regarding the ticket. I just have to do the paperwork with my manager, but I'm not in trouble with them. I think my manager...
Good for you! Welcome to LTL! I think you'll enjoy it. Definitely a far cry from flatbedding, I'm sure!
Jeez! What a week! Thursday: Marion, IL. Gravy run; out there and back. 486 miles. Friday: Got called in to go to the rail yard in Chicago,...
Yes, still here and still truckin! The reason why I've been so quiet is simple: I've been busy, busy, busy! I've had a couple 2800-3000 mile...
Good. Personally, I think any worker, even if they work in the transport industry, should make OT after 40. Haven't been doing as much driving...
Good luck! I hope it works out for you guys. I see lots of h/w teams working for OD, so they obviously know how to treat 'em right!

CargoChristi, you mentioned possibly relocating to Indianapolis? Might I suggest looking into Safe Driver's Institute of America for driving...
Yeah, I figured they probably won't tow. I just know that the T/A in Nashville is really anal about who parks where and will have no problem...
Let the truckstop staff know? If you can't find the offending driver, they can page them. If that doesn't work, they'll page a towing company.
Have any of you guys tried the super single dollies? We have them where I work (OD) and I like 'em.
Not sure, but they all seem to be doing well.
Wow! Bet you guys thought I forgot about this thread, haven't you? Not really, but I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to sit down...
How are they to drive? I see them around here in Central Indiana all the time, now I know where they're going since you say they go to SIA.
Actually, they aren't so bad. You have to slow down with them in the winter, though.
Both. They do get a lot of applicants, and it took around 3 weeks or so for me to get through the interview process. I was lucky because I...
As an anxiety disorder sufferer myself, I've learned that until someone has actually experienced debilitating anxiety for themselves, they will...
