Who's The Worst Of Them ALL to work for?

Just couldnt resist, could ya, you beligerent old phart!!!

A "CRE Cheerleader"???? Man, are you for real? Just because Im one of the few that got it right with a company with such a bad rep, Im now a cheerleader.......GTH old man.

Again, Im not stuck in my "fleece", moron. I can terminate this deal whenever I want.

Yer right, theres no home, not even a rental. No kids, no lawn that needs to be mowed...... We got rid of the house, put everything in storage and came out over the road. Now we can take hometime wherever we please....

But then again, if you have a home, wife and kids at that home, along with that yard that has to be mowed, then maybe OTR isnt for you. I know if I had all that, it wouldnt be. Before anybody gets upset for what I just said, if you have all that and you still choose to drive OTR, then you you dont have a right to complain. Truckdriving isnt the only occupation out there and if truckin is all you know, then you got problems.

No offense milskired, but you, rolley polley, are telling him to stop arguing with me the rookie when he only has 2 yrs??? What is that like, one more year than me?? I bet you have no idea how ignorant you sound.

I'd appreciate if you would cease all this ######## towards me because Im really starting to get ####### tired of it. The only thing you are proving is how much of an ignorant ####### you are.

 

ROFLMAO! Yep can't handle it at all! Doesn't take much these days!
An old Confucious saying;

Who sound more the fool?
The fool or the fool arguing with a fool?
I'll start off and agree with you, I AM a belligerent (learn to spell!) old phart! I earned that title many years ago.

-Anyone else want to pick his rant apart? I'm a fool and tired of arguing with them too! LOL!

-The military awards rank on years and experience so you are out ranked by Milskred!
-Yeah you can walk away from that lease but those of us who have sat and watched driver after driver do the "walk away" and get bent in some really fun ways knows whats instore for you.

-Naah... OTR isn't for me, I guess, as my last job before this small medical problem cropped up. That $74,000 for '07 and the $43,000+ for the 25 1/2 weeks I did work in '08 and home every weekend was too hard to bear! And all that as a moron! A poor, lowly, good for nothing but smart enough NOT to get taken in by a fleece deal, company driver! I put it up here: http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...ckers-advice/108869-my-25-week-w-2-proof.html with my '08 W-2, But not one L/P driver has the danglies to show me a lease/fleece pay statement or 1099 that pays any money! OR better than I made ! NOT the Gross but your net! I also paid $198. a week for my health insurance plan!

Yeah, a fleece. ROFLMFSAO!
But I'm smart enough not to bad mouth those that have more time and experience in the world much less in this profession that you do! I'm not the only one to fall on you like stink on poo after you have told someone with more years driving than you have walking the face of the earth in this forum when you open mouth and insert foot but as we usually do we throw the crap on you to watch you try to dig out! I'll be back to see your next attempt to prove that you have whiskers in this fight! You're just so easy!

 

Anybody else reading this I have one question. Do you think it is safer for a truck to run 63 MPH or be able to run 70 MPH? Going across AZ and NM doing 63 when the speed limit is 75 and there are trucks doing 75+ seems unsafe to me.

63 is safer, the trucks running faster are the ones who are more likely to have an accident and the drivers of those trucks will be more stressed at the end of the day.

 

I know I have read this somewhere Gondo, a higher percentage of accidents are caused by motorists driving under the speed limit then motorists driving safley at or slightly above the speed limit.

And for this whole fuel milage deal that these companies think there trucks that have a detuned 430hp motor with a 9 speed trans because there to cheap to have a splitter box on there transmissions and only goes 62 or so MPH gets what 6MPG? maybe 6.5? Thats great because when you get a F/L Classic with a N-14 or a S60 DD set at 500+ with a 13 speed in it grossing 76-78K daily who runs that 75 MPH across those states he can, he will end up getting 6.5+ MPG, have more time in his logs because companies are starting to crack down on the whole you cant make your logs look like you were driving 75 in a 62 MPH truck. Who made more money? that O/O with a LARGE CAR who just blew your doors off and is still getting the same if not .5 MPG better fuel economy then you are, or that L/P truck that does 62 and cant even get out of its own way in any kind of hurry and falls on its face with every little hump in the road?

Cornelious I am that person that can argue about this stuff but I am not trying to pick a fight with you. Nor am I trying to get anybody else to try and pick a fight with you. Yes I am a rookie still only with 2 years under my belt but that 1 year you have is still what 150K less miles then me? That to me is a good bit of driving my friend.

 

Swift told me that they do not hire experianced drivers, so I had to ask who they are putting behind the wheel!!!

 

Ok, and I have to ask, what did Swift tell you? :smt102

 

True, you are not "stuck" in your "fleece". You can turn your truck back in any time you like. One thing they won't tell you and it's not in your contract either, is if you decide to turn your truck back in BEFORE your lease is up, they will report it on your credit report as a negative, where it will sit for seven years. Just in case you didn't know.

Hubby turned his truck back in before the end of his lease back in 2002 and the Tradeline finally dropped off our credit report in 2009. The whole time it was there, it was showing open and active. Go figure? Of course the only thing it showed was a checking reserve with a balance of $86,000.00. And a negative of $86.00 for something they said he owed them. Funny thing though, it took them almost a year to pay him his last check and they took the $86.00 out of that check. The $86.00 was some bogus bookkeeping fee, that hubby neither wanted nor requested. But still, no matter how much we disputed, it showed this information for 7 years.

All I'm doing is trying to prepare you for the potential for something negative. These leases they say you can walk away from, yeah, you can walk away from them, but they don't tell you about how bad they can hurt you on your credit report. It's just like those DAC reports, they can say anything they want on those and are impervious to any retribution.....same thing with the credit reporting agencies.

I wondered why when you went into the SLC terminal why they had security at every turn in the place. There must be a few disgruntled ex-lease operators that got burned the same way hubby did. Swift was the same way, you had to wait to be let through a locked door to enter the office area in Phoenix to talk to anyone. I can see why they do what they do. Do they ever stop for one minute and think about if they didn't treat so many drivers so disrespectfully and screw with people's lives, they wouldn't have any reason for all the security or locked doors? Why it might even save them some money in the long run.

 

Oh, I can handle whatever BS you feel like shovelin, pal!!

I guess that "old" saying oughtta be directed at you. Seems to me like you are the one followin me around from thread to thread nippin at my heels like my grandmother's PITA poodle.

Wow, we actually agree on something! ####, it may start rainin frogs today.....

So I misspelled a word.... Sue me.

Yeah, Id say you are runner-up for the gold on that one.

So, what does serving in the military have to do with drivin a truck???? Oh wait, I know! Its something more for you to prove that you have nothing better to do than jump on rookies for each and every little thing.....

So, you know of each and every driver that got burned in a lease deal? Wow, you really are bored and looking for things to occupy your time.

Again, I still havent figured out why you think Im gonna be a statistic, but ok.

Well, good for you for showing your income papers to the world. I choose not to share that kinda information on the net, especially on a web forum. I gave you an idea of what my net income will be, but even if I show you again, you still wouldnt take it for what its worth.

I only badmouth those that like to belittle and make fun of people. If one of you elders has some worthy advice, and doesnt like to treat people like you're always right regardless, I will happily listen. And right now, you're pretty much takin the taco, man.

I never said, or even implied that you were pickin a fight. That would be rollover who likes to be the instigator. I just simply asked you how your friend got burned because im curious.

One the note of your 2 years vs my 1 year, does it really matter in the "experience" war?? We're both still considered rookies.

I really dont think anybody knows just how much road time you gotta have before your not considered a rook.

I knew there was a mark on the credit rating, but I didnt know it stayed on there for that long.

I cant remember if it was in the contract, but they told us what will happen if we turn the truck in early. I guess we just asked the right questions.

Well, I'm no stranger to bad marks on my credit. Matter fact, Ive probly had some bad marks on my credit that are probly far worse than a lease incomplete mark.

So, how did your husband get burned, if you dont mind me asking?

I'm not on a personal vendetta to find out the facts on each and every sour lease deal, just wanna hear some stories.
