New HOS....yep

And remember the Ice cannot be any higher than six Inches from the top. . . Comooooon!

 

You flatbed guys don't know what you're missing since you've never had to top ice a load.

Oh, wait, I'm in the queue to be one. Never mind.

 

Rick, do you always drive the speed limit? Or do you go a few miles over it because you know they are not going to bother you?

 

Better be nice to the teacher, Jim, or he might yell at you again...

Glad I'm not the only one who is getting a bit irritated at myself and my coworkers being scolded by someone who has absolutely nothing to do with Maverick...

 

I shot past "irritated" like an F-14 off a carrier deck the moment he said the word "integrity"...something he clearly knows nothing about, not even the definition.

So I'll educate him some...with the help of Merriam Webster.

I don't see anything there that says a person of integrity cannot call BS what it is....matter of fact, it states the exact OPPOSITE...case in point, it says "values"...not laws.

And if any post on this forum ever deserved to be removed, its the one in which he made that spineless comment. I've been a moderator on a couple of forums for a long time...I know the ropes and understand the rules...somebody here has their priorities mixed up.

The troll should have been dealt with first...maybe he was dealt with, he's been quiet...but his BS needs to be removed.

 

When I first got on this board almost 4 years ago, Rick G did nothing but tell anyone that was interested in trucking, that they would not make it, could not make.it, and that they were going to be an utter failure. Nothing ever positive, always negative. That is what you are dealing with.
I am not perfect nor am I without sin. I try to do my best every day and to help others any way that I can.
As Jesus said..." let him who who is without sin, cast the first stone"

 

Deleted my own post since the modertors made my point for me.

 

Back to business as usuall now. The only way I have been affected by the new rules is I got delayed by a breakdown and had just over 8 hours to drive and only had 8 hours and 25 min on my 14. I could have stopped early but I would have had to stop 75 miles early because I was in middle of no where Oklahoma. Long story short I drove non stop (I was empty) on the governor instead of taking short breaks and getting better fuel economy.

 

Today I took my 30 in richmond va, but so did everyone else.....could not get a shower....lol
