    It's kind of long, but explains it all. My wife's cousin is a Female that drives for Prime, named Kirsten. I get a lot of inside info that way. This is sad. Very.

    This isn't exactly it, but you can start here to search. Yes, TB did drive for Prime, L/O I think, and recently quit.

    So basically he was another L/P who is in a long line of many others than have failed. Leasing is always a bad idea. I see leasing a truck like leasing a car, you lease a car when you plan on turning it in at the end, never expect much equity in it, and in trucking you also get to maintain it for the owner, who is not you. If you can't buy it, keep your company seat until you can afford to.

    vlogging is a great way to show off the industry and share stories. there are a lot of drivers who seem to be more interested in vlogging than driving. they end up failing miserably as drivers. you get some drivers who know that they are drivers first and vloggers second.

    Junior is still vlogging. He had a couple of vids from the last couple of days and just now I got a notification he's uploaded a new video.

    So really, through all of this that and the others and the BLAH BLAH BLAHS...

    Has anyone ever directly heard from the company that the making of vids and vlogs is prohibited by prime?
