    .48 cpm would be good. Gopher, Mark doesn't like me so I don't think you talking to him will change that. Lol. Besides it will a few weeks before I will have $20.00 to spare for that.

    Well the tire changes on the trl worked. I'm no long bouncing down the highway... Lol. I'm at 9k points for the yr. I also heard that the office wants to turn off the points for driver because a few drivers didn't want to use the new Albany shop while they where there. Just do they could get points. If they do I guess getting a free shower will be out of the question. Also if they do I'll be leaving trl's at the shipper until they get fixed. Don't punish the many for the few boneheads.

    There is a 3 part problem to the equipment issues. 1: drivers that just grab and go with put looking at anything. 2: making sure if you drop a trl at Denver or New Albany that you write it up and 3: having someone take the work order and double check the work being done. Making sure the item written up are fixed. Leaving 1 of these items unchecked will cause the issue to never go away. All 3 must be corrects in order for the equipment issues to fade away.

    I dropped 2123 in New Albany for an annual and tires. It beat me to death but since I was headed to New Albany I just decided they could handle it.
