    You'd be surprised how many need help. Not every trucker has a job that pays the bills. And they DO post on here.

    It's nothing against you personally. It's just a general blanket comment.

    Why would you want to work for a company like that?

    And this! Is exactly why I don’t install bogus ### company apps.

    If you’ve spent any time reading what companies that build and promote their apps through Apple & Google developers side. You know as an employee of that company. Your #### is owned, 100%

    It doesn't run apps. It's just a phone. No tracking software possible to install.

    lolol Good one.

    I wonder what that company would do if someone said they didn’t own a cell phone.

    Unless it's my uncle. I'd dare to say the majority own a cell phone these days.

    I don't know how many would still have an actual landline.

    We got my mom one, a cell phone. It might as well be a boat anchor lol

    She also had Life Alert. I stress the word had. It too might as well been a boat anchor.

    You can lead a horse to water.....

    What phone? Im deaf. I don't do stupid phones. (Get a warrant you.) If the Boss yells and throws a fit, tell him he is the idiot for hiring a deaf trucker. ha.

    Such a job has no value in a environment like that. If I am not mistaken FAA says it's illegal to jam in the USA

    As far as the shirts taking my phone and raping it with a app etc? Forget it. I'll put a bullet in it first and get another when off the property looking to join another employer.

    There are a extremely limited set of situations where I'll go along with it but frankly they will be looking for another lamb to put into that tractor. It's not for me.
