    VERY TRUE ,I have seen stevens an a few others that were on that side but looks like they converted them to other side becuz the hole was patched, those jugs are big bucks to dude like some times 14.00, bucks for 2.5 gallons, lol cost like 2.85 a gallon at the pump, ever once in a while if you at truckstop thats not busy or middle of night you can go thru backards,,, not often, an just a mattter of time b4 truckstops stop letting us do that....lol what gets me this is all for the enviroment,,, the big green thing ! LOOK AT ALL THE PLASTIC JUGS AN TRASH ITS MAKEING. thats our goverment !!!!

    "Fuel Bonus" to save J.B.S. USA inc millions of dollars annually.

    50% idle .005 cpm bonus
    25% idle .01 cpm bonus
    10% idle .015 cpm bonus
    05% idle .02 cpm bonus
    01% idle .04 cpm bonus

    Copied from the book SVRC posted. Brother the way things are going they are probably going to deduct millage from drivers then give a fuel bonus. Seems if you do something like blow your nose they will take your safety bonus. So I'm sure they aren't looking to give any drivers incentives, but it would be nice.

    Seems like a lot of you guys on here should be in management because you have some pretty good ideas. It was a very hot summer and my truck pretty much had to stay on, and I hate my truck running when I'm sleeping. I have been able to cut the truck off more the past few weeks. Have been pretty cool in the day. Only bad part about turning your truck off for long periods. Is the batteries will die especially if you have a fridge or something in there. But just a crank with the jumper cables and reefer battery will get you back in business.

    May all have a prosperous and safe week God bless.

    You are very jaded if you think that most places treat senority first.Senority doesn't mean anything unless you are a Teamster.I worked at Tyson for 15 years and was treated like every other a-hole who just came out of orientation.Example I was promised a dedicated run out of the plant 20 miles from my house and they gave it to someone who just came out of orientation.So what regional makes more money than OTR suck it up and move on.
