    I have had several FM changes just like many of the other drivers here and it wasn't easy but I and others survived. You drivers on Lea's board will survive too. Just hang in there. Be brave, be strong, be men.
    Your pal, Gopher cares.

    One of my new recap drive tires starting falling apart yesterday. Got it replaced with an exact tread pattern by T/A. I was lucky to catch it before it tore up stuff.

    How many drivers do you reckon sent in a passing pretrip on that??? Bums
    I picked up a trailer 3 weeks ago and one of the air lines was 2 inches from the ground and the clips were all broke. I went straight to Petro with it.

    I thought that was positive enough.when u have to pick up somebodies problem that they should have solved there is nothing positive that comes out of that.i just think gopher is tired of it like some of the other drivers that ended up leaving because of it.in other words gopher is positive just tired...am I making any since??

    on that ticket that I received,i took it to mark and he paid it for me...but still on my csa score...out of service/3 brakes out of adjustment/slack adjusters not properly working and chaffed air hose.thats when I realized I had to crawl under every trlr I get and check everything.the best news about all the problems was that,the sticker for dot yearly inspection was only a week old to the day.done at our shop.but things are a lot better since carl took over,i have a lot less problems with trlrs

    :

    Thank you Holycow. I'm not being negative about FRE but I get real negative with a driver that hasn't gumption enough to simply do their job. Its not like its hard work and repairs are a phone call away just don't leave it for the next driver.
    We have some great drivers but there are a few that just need to get it together.
