    Yes, they do have a specific way to interact with us drivers… which seems pretty accommodating to me. I’m sure there is always some drivers that don’t fit in but I find it rather hard to believe too… all you have to do is drive, be responsible for timely delivery, swing by the shop once in awhile, and you can just not interact with most people most of the time. So I guess I’m not following but I don’t need to either. Personally, I rarely interact with anyone myself. Would be nice to be in the click as I could use a few new friends… LOL

    So, when are you coming back for your fourth different time??? :)

    You might find me more helpful than you may think.

    I did play guidance councilor the first two times… the third time I just gave him my two cents worth about his opinions of things that won’t change and why they won’t change, so I doubt there will be a fourth time.

    as to reading this, I’ve met a number of drivers in the drivers lounges over the past five years here and I don’t even know his name to call him out personally, and wouldn’t do that anyway…

    but if he is reading this thread…
    grow the #### up and stop #####ing.

    btw, I’ll talk to just about any driver and listen to them comment about shippers, receivers, other drivers, and just about anything that we all complain about… I’ll even laugh and join them a bit… this wasn’t that.

    I have a feeling I may have been subjected to this driver's whining as well. I honestly have really nothing bad to say about FCC, except I don't appreciate their decision to spec the T680 with a PACCAR engine, and the GEOTab fiasco. I can go weeks without hearing from anyone in the office, other than asking for ETA. But they don't even do it in a babysitting kind of way; I usually get my next load (or two) fairly soon after that. My miles have dropped a bit overall, but I think I am spoiled a bit... I still averaged over 35000 miles last quarter, up from 31k the quarter before that. When I hear stories of people groveling or kissing butt to get anything over 2500, I am just glad that all I have to do is just be there when I say I will or update ETA, otherwise, proactively set myself up for restarts or efficient recaps, and stay on top of the 8k miles shop thing. The miles just kind of take care of themselves. I am getting burned out on running East nonstop, but such is the market these days...
