    That sucks. I was fighting a mild case of food poisoning across US-87 and I-40 earlier this week, I feel your pain.

    Oh, I didn't think it was meant to bad mouth them. I just was pointing out that you likely have been followed many times, whether you found out before or not. Just an observation is all. I've only known about 4 times. Ive had 2 here in 2 1/2 years (1 good 1 bad) and 2 at my previous employer over 4 1/2 years (both good reports though I think 1 of them was just making #### up.)

    Pete an old trick I learned while working aloft sailing. When you need to barf pull open your shirt. And do it there. We called it death from above. It's easier to clean yourself off and clothing then getting all those chunks out of the vents.
     
    HalpinUout and whoopNride Thank this.

    The fed ex was set regular runs, not pop ups. A lot of ups is packages with same run everyday,. Then you have dedicated , where you get a run but maybe not the same and you have the daily guarantee if no run, then you have the popup board.if you want one of those it's best to call and get on the list.

    The individual agentswill call some who pulled previously, but best to call in September, the rate went up 19.9 cents this year. The FedEx I saw was single trailer only

    Yes apparently it has , I have been followed 9 times in my 7 years here, 8 by the joker's in the green an white cars . Once by Len going up 71 , he lives that way. It's 5 points for those, my first one was a month after I started .

    South of dc to Baltimore has been 4 of them, passed them all.

    I talked with Jason about this about a month ago, on the hiring standards.

    The real difference seems to not be the standards of driving records , but more in individuals ,. Of personal conduct and appearance, it seems society has changed .

    I see it more in how folks conduct themselves, some guys are absolutely vulgar around others
     
    RStewart Thanks this.
