    I understand your experience is much greater than mine but without one falsified log I'll make a little over $80,000 this year. The drivers with more seniority who can run 5 long runs will make over $90,000 this year without one falsified log. I guess ya gotta do what ya gotta do.. huh..

    Union doesn't count.

    Congrats to you though for sure.

    Con-way is as non-union as a company gets. Without starting too much poo, ever heard of the CF/Con-way thing?

    Again, Con-way is as non-union as any LTL trucking company could possible be. Most Teamsters wish the demise of this well paying money making company. I cannot stress how non-union Con-way is. Mention the U word you're probably canned.

    No load or job is worth me going to prison. I refuse to become the sweetiepie of some big hairy girl named BerthaMae. Therefore I do not lie or get creative with my logs.

    Still in the gathering information phase but I see people talking about modifing the log to your advantage but not sure what it means.

    So I'm gathering it's something you'd do to drive more hours than you should. Like you say you were at a truck stop in Kalimazoo at 21:10 in your log but you were really driving through the night to make a delivery ahead of schedule so you can get on the next job? More loads while you're out = more $$$ kinda thing?
