    Agree on all of it. This is not going to be an easy one to pass. Especially if as many of us as possible take the invitation to voice our side. I sure did. ;)

    It's truck driver appreciation week. Kinda bummed Abilene hasn't done squat. Oh well I guess. Just ended my Gatorade shuffle. Pickup for various delivery in the am then home. Hopefully it'll go quick

    All we can do is stand up like you said and voice our opinions!! It's really making it tough for a guy wanting to come into this industry and make a good career. Its changed so much since I started driving.

    I've written numerous letters before and I'll continue to do so. Maybe it will never do any good but you gotta try, you know?

    Yeah, Schneider has it all over XM radio for their drivers all week. Was reading a KB thread here yesterday and a new guy posted a shot of his QC showing his DM praising him for a job well done. Bet that felt nice. :)
     
    MidWest_MacDaddy and 5speed Thank this.

    Medical equipment? If so, they don't speak English. You will be there all day. They took 9 hrs to unload me. When you are sure you are in the right suite, (there was a soccer poster in the window) you might as well disconnect from the trailer and park beside it. There is a customs broker opposite the consignee. Mid afternoon and that place is crawling with trucks.

    If you aren't there, never mind. I'm going back into seclusion. Peace.
