Lots of other industries with constant employee surveillance. Imagine getting kicked out of a trucking company and getting blackballed over a...
Less and less places to run away from these things. It'll get to the point where the new questions being asked will be "what camera violations do...
I heard rumours about driver facing cameras back in 2019. There is that system linked to the auto braking that supposedly is setup for a driver...
I mean if the cameras were only used for "no cell phone" policies, I could understand that. But other accounts tell me that they also track health...
Still plugging along here. Of course I was voluntold to take one of these trade in trucks down to Florida via an Alabama load from Littlefield....
Never actually thought of NH as a particularly good job market for anything at anytime. I still believe jobs are out there. But one has to be...
Downtime on the road and in a big city? Bicycle and exploration time. We get some breakdown pay and the company tries to get us rolling? Write...
I managed to stick to strict night driving the past few days. NM, CO, TX Panhandle, and even KS were pretty normal. Of course last year I got...
If a company camera caught it, one got fired over it, but no accident? Take it as a lesson learned and head onto the next place. If there was an...
For sure. If my current dispatcher gets on me about late loads again, I'll just play dumb. I mean for the longest time, the general consensus was...
Talked intensely with a regional sleeper cab driver at the Loves in Lamar. He told me about the cameras and it would definitely be a discipline...
Don't do over the road, so I'll probably make a roadtrip out of it. Seems like Illinois is chock full of RR museums to indulge in.
Sounds like the Midwestern America Railroad Museum. Housed in what used to be the Rock Island Silvis Depot before they went under back in 1980.
One of the dispatchers I work with has that last name. Wouldn't be too shocked if they're related.
Makes me wonder if that one I used to load in Willard closed down too? Last I did anything with that one was 2015. Clovis Ruan picked it up for...
Not 100% sure about that one. All I could think of is that dairies that far west were affected by the whole bird flu thing. Perhaps even changing...
Pretty much. Even neighbouring states like MO or IA are better than anywhere in IL. That whole state is bad for one of my interests. NM seems to...
Definitely keeping my eye on either Amarillo or Lubbock for now. Focus on a rental and then start saving up money for a travel trailer to tow...
After 12 years here, it's like anywhere else for me. Of course I also don't really have many friends here either. I'm either staying inside...
Just going with fuel haulers with no experience at the moment. Got 12 years of milk tanker hauling and a Hazmat collecting dust since there isn't...
