    I call BS on this one.

    Please PM me with details on this. I would like to check it out.

    We used to have a payphone inside the scalehouse. Every once in a while someone would invoke the "US Marshall" threat. The only guy who did call them got a screaming from the other end of the phone that I heard across the room! He was told to hang up and listen to the DOT officer and stop causing problems.

    BS meter pegged out on this one.

    No support from one another. Then people talk about everyone agreeing on a shut down date. Buhahahaha. With a crowd like this. One doesn't support eachother just laughed or made fun of. Another reason why this industry is made to what it is now. At least everyone back in the day stuck it out together. Everyone had diffrerent opinions but when it came down to it they were behind each other for support not everyone on their own page thinking they king of the castle. Soon times will be like they are in other countries you will see what you liked better, but when those times come it will be to late to turn back times to support each other and go back to the good old days.

    I agree. DB and scalemaster are kind enough to share stories from their end. This is their thread and many of us like to read their stories.

    All you anti-anti's start your own thread. These guys done nothing to you!

    I opened a thread for the trucking law firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe so all these guys would have a place to go with this stuff. I forgot to append "Trucking Law Specialists" to the name of the firm in the thread title. Perhaps, MT; you could rectify that error?

    Glad to see this thread back open!
     
    Brickman, lonewolf4ad and Mastertech Thank this.
