    Ain't that the truth... IDK, though. I figure I can live with company-owned dash cams, so long as they're used properly. Where I draw the line is when companies start weaponizing them and using them against their own drivers

    True enough. However, you always have a choice. It's their company and if you don't like their rules......you can leave. If they can't keep help, they'll change. If not, they go out of business. Either way, you still have a choice.

    I'm suspect of a couple brokers i use of taking money off the top of the customers with tarp pay.. That partial lumber load i posted yesterday was supposed to be tarped. But i called the customer and asked if they wanted it tarped and they said no way. Save yourself the work. This isnt the first time its happened. Which is fine to me because im still getting paid for it but its the customer is the one paying extra money for it without knowing, apparently.

    I've had alot of loads that "require" tarps but when I called they said no tarp. Alot of brokers just offer the customer to tarp every load at no cost. I've grown to despise it really.
