    The company I'm leased on with, we keep the same trailer 365 days a year, and its so freaking nice. After pulling so many beat to #### trailers, having a real one is just so freaking nice. At higher speeds there is zero vibration, cause it tracks true, and hasn't been wtf beat up.

    He was doing drugs. Played sick for few days. I figured he want to quit but didn't know why. Offered a load to the yard, but he said he can't drive sick, ok. Waited everyday for a few days, then lost all contact with him. Sent police to see if he was alive. Everything was empty out of the truck. He was a drug addict. I recovered the truck but it costed me time and money so I didn't pay him his last paychecks. He called me threatening and so on. I always wished he would come. He'd be wheeling a chair and not n 18 wheeler

    yes and working for some bad owner operators is sad business and makes it very hard to trust people.

    yes it was almost the same , working for owner operators that dont care one bit about the driver. i was in shreveport , lousiana, the day before thanksgiving, dropped off my load that morning. they couldnt get me any loads going home to houston so my boss wanted me to stay there until monday. i told him i would pay half on the fuel for him to let me go home and spend thanksgiving at home instead of at a truck stop. he threatened that he would report the truck stolen if i went home. i called louisana and texas sheriff office before i did anything because this was the first time i heard of this. and by the way , i dont do any drugs nor do i drink alcohol. but i tell you what, i love you driving, but after this i dont think i will be driving for anyone ever again and get out of this industry .
