    Its funny and ironic how people who complain the most about "non English" folks, have a hard time with speaking proper English themselves

    It takes me 3 times longer to write legibility than to type. Even if there was no time saving, not getting a form and manner violation for an unreadable location is worth it.

    The lady that used to work the NB Inkom scale told me the harder it is to read the more she’s going to dig. So from then on I printed clearly in block letters. Lol

    I run a paper time sheet. If I run out of my radius, I run the loose leaf logs. I prefer the scribbling, I’m to old school to change, you know the saying, “ If it ain’t broken, why fix it”. Hence, I fall under the ELD exemption. Lucky me. :D

    She had a fondness for inspecting bull racks, for sure.

    The phone apps are great, especially at preventing form and manner violations and math errors.

    Do you need a printer in the truck with those, still?
     
    Vampire, Oxbow and gentleroger Thank this.

    I loved using the logbook app on the phone. I was on paper for a couple years, then the app. So much simpler and quicker.
