Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

and just to think ,we thought we had it bad back then would gladly trade it for the crap we have today . but then everybody had respect for each other now it seems like it evry man for himself .and That is so wrong .

 

I agree and we complained about the law, the cost of fuel etc... Now we have $3 plus fuel, more rules and regs and all this emission crap and it cost $140,000 for a new truck that gets the same fuel mileage as a 30 year old Peterbilt. O' and we are hauling for the same rates.

God you have to love trucking, because if I didn't I would be a nut at the mental hospital.

 

You mean that I am a nut ? guess I know now what they were talking about when I heard on the radio the other day HEY!!! Watch out for the Blue Pete he is a loose nut behind the wheel LOL

 

No Steve not old, you are well experienced!

 

Are the loads into the ethanol plants pretty steady 5 days a week?

 

I hear ya on Colwich. My grandma lives up there, so on the really bad days, I go have lunch with her while my truck is in line. Good thing about grandma is that she enjoys feeding me as much as I enjoy getting out of that hell hole!

 

Sorry that I didn't see this post earlier. You could've thrown a rock from there and hit my house. I'm sure you found it OK, though. It's not hidden real well.
