reason 3184902151 why you dont team

The closest I got to teaming was my 'super solo' time with a trainer. Didn't much care for it

 

lets see $1300/week solo
or maybe $1100 team
where do i sign up

 

I couldn't team because the fear of what happened to the OP...and for maybe $1100 a week...o heck no.

 

Ok, first and foremost, I too am glad to hear no one was injured. That being said, I can say this. That when I HAD TO team, as per company policy when I first started out, if a team truck got into a crash, BOTH drivers WERE CHARGED with a preventable. Doesn't make any sense, I know, if one is in the sleeper, but the "theory" that particular company had was "if one will crash, so will the other, as they both work off one another". I did "my time" as a team driver, and please believe me, that I had team mates transferred out of that truck, just because one wouldn't shower!

So please, please, make sure you speak with safety IN PERSON if possible and see if they are going to "find a way" you too will be charged. And also, if that Jesus toting driver hasn't been fired, make sure YOU REQUEST another team mate, or go on your own.

True this statement. Many times I have read that 2 people want to team up, because they have been friends for life. But what they NEVER understand is that, even though that truck IS BIG on the outside, it IS surprisingly SMALL on the inside, when 2 people try to live together. I have always believed that those nice big condo's were meant for picking up a lot lizard for a few minutes of fun (and disease catching), then throw her out, then be alone to enjoy peace and quiet.

Yeah, me too.

That IS a big problem. For me, when parked for my break, and laying down, that slight vibration of the engine idling rocks me to sleep. However, getting "rocked" going down the road is a totally, totally different story.

 

Glad to read nobody got hurt. What caused the other driver to crash??
I think it's time to run solo....

 

He said in his first posting, his co-driver was talking to Jesus.(intensely)
