FxfMgr,from my experience Road drivers are 90% on the rumor / info flow
I hear and I repeat ''I hear'' that they have lost 10 road drivers to Roadway and Dayton in the last couple days. Who can confirm or dispel this post as rumor ? Thank you in advance.

I got to throw in my 2 cents. I dont think these guys should have charged for a H. What we are talking about here is a pre trip of your equipment. Oops the chain didnt get hooked up or they forgot the landing gear. So fix it right. Now u got to charge them for it? Always thought that what pre trips are for. If u want to take it to the next step call the hostler over and say fix it or call the super and say someone needs to fix this. Me? i just do it and tell the boss that dumb A hostler aint doing his job and if u dont get him straight I will sit there and miss my cut time and you can explain it to the big boss. I have pulled into scales and had the chp write something up that my dumb a mechinic wouldnt fix. Now he fixing it LOL
FxfMgr,
Welcome to Truckingboards.
(where the road driver rumors are always at least juicy if not entirely factual!)

Rodknocker don't forget, we are all "at will" employees we can be let go at anytime for any reason.
If a driver did that to fellow drivers that is not cool.I heard from a 'reliable' source,,, very close to the drivers,,, that it was nothing to do with logging... They pulled dollies behind the tractors across a street,,, from lot to center,,, and the Nark,,, (sp?) took a camera phone picture.... What a slime bag to do something like that just to move up... That dollie thing has probably happened a thousand times.....
I herd the dollys they were pulling across the street from the Watkins temrinal were out of service and they were bringng them back to kc on their own to get them fixed. sounds like a safety issue, not only theres but the genral public as well we will likely never no the whole story
