    I'm sure he's pulling those numbers out of his posterior end. I wonder what those imaginary numbers would like if trucks only ran every other day to utilize this vast majority of drivers whom now have come down with the sleep cycle virus thing that starts with C. How oh how did we do this job before this sleep/laziness disease swept the country.

    Here is the cut and paste version:


    Ok Here's the official update. I had a nice long chat with the owner of K&B and he adamantly apologized for the actions of the night time dispatchers that were trying to force me to make an unsafe decision. He even went on to say that the video has put some things into perspective for him and assured me that this would not happen again, and if it did or if I had any other problems, that I was to contact him directly. So that does mean that I have decided to stay at K&B Transportation. This does not mean that things are back to rainbows and cinnamon, I'm still very aware that this ordeal may have made some office personal angry, so I'm on guard in the event I'm being "set up" for anything. I feel confident I made the right decision to stay, and the owner and safety personal made it very clear that this will not happen to me, or anyone in the company again, and if it does, jobs may be on the line. Only time will tell if this was actually the correct decision. I hope so.
