OOS for not having a permit

The statement of if you save a grand on permits then that's a grand in your pocket speaks volumes. Saying you care and really caring are different things.

Making a clear concise decision to say f the permit, coupled with the grand in your pocket statement then coming on here acting like Mr concerned is why your getting told the truth you dont want to hear in a very blunt manor. Its unprofessional, bad business and really insulting. Accurate advice starts with the truth that's alls I'm sayin

 

Let me relate a story to you to show you just how important open deck securement is. It was the early 1990’s, I was in my early 20s working in Russia for a 1099 contractor. We were on a dedicated run hauling containers of illegal firearms and ammunition in overseas containers.

It’s about ten below that day, I decide to just chain the front of the container and throw a strap over the back, Kremlin be darned. I grab a fifth of Russian vodka and strike out for Moscow. I had failed to make sure the deck wasn’t frozen, so you can imagine what happened as I took a curve a little too fast and the container came loose.

Now unbeknownst to me, Boris Yeltsin is a huge David Hasselhoff fan. Well, not only is the Hoff on tour in mother Russia, but he actually gets caught up in the backup I caused. I also didn’t realize my fifth of vodka had gone flying out of the cab, and wouldn’t you know it, Hoff picked it up and polished it off.

(Here he is stuck in the backup my hasty securement caused)


Now we have a real problem, Hoff is expected to play a concert for Yeltsin and he can’t make it. On top of that, I’ve got Gorbachev and the KGB breathing down my neck about the firearms because they are wanting to start a skirmish with the Ukraine. I sobered up quickly, put the Hoff on horseback, and he made the show.



Did I end the Cold War? I wouldn’t go that far, but seeing Hoff riding on horseback to Moscow was a defining moment in my open deck career.

 

At the end of the day the man is just asking “ how will this effect his safety score”?
The real answer is it probably will have little to no effect for him because he wasn’t put out of service officially for a safety violation.
He was basically told unofficially don’t move till you get the proper permits.

 

Hey pavrom- Pay attention here- I won't insult you but.............

When you Eastern Euro's do what you do- You make us American Drivers Look bad- (As others have stated here)

Its Not just you- THE BROKERS SEE HOW YOU GUYS OPERATE AND EXPECT THAT KIND OF SERVICE FROM EVERYONE THEN.

Hey, If you wanna haul steel-oversize-reefer whatever- Follow our Laws.....Don't go racing 900 miles after you just loaded at 4pm to deliver "Next day" ,You make the Brokers Dikks very hard when you do that.

them its expected by all of us. Go back to Europe if you wanna run around trying to "Surpass" the way we do things here. And Im Serious, No need for this.

 

There is NO try. Do or Do Not! It’s not that hard of a concept.

 

I missed all that for sure.
However I've been calling my dog stupid for years and he still doesn't know it. I don't think anyone will have any better results from a human.
$4 bucks a mile is no different then the $0.85 out of Florida (or what ever it was). Some think it pays some don't.

 

It's just a money grab. You are allowed 80k unless you buy their magic paper then you're good for 120k.
( hope spelling is right)
