First thing I do at 3 am turn on the ac. Turn on 4 ways, can I see trailer lights flash. Good saftey check done let's roll.

Hey that line I've done more miles in reverse than anyone forward, that's me. Where's the guy that had an airline for an ambilical cord. Gladhand is a wave, goodtimes no doubt. Or do like bj mckay and play smokeybear a game of football over a speeding ticket. Heads I win, tails you lose. Where have all the goodtimes gone. That's what I had across my hood. "Goodtimes"

Hurry up and wait is the best line to describe this industry.. Love it or leave it.

Check your idle control, you hit one of the buttons.

I'm not an "owner-operator," and I have money in the bank. If I don't spend it, I have to declare my checking account balance on the 1040T (for truck driver), after which, the government just takes it.

If you're an owner operator and have money in the bank you're doing it wrong.

Get some ambien, works great.

And wait, let's not forget weight. What 80k minus your tractor trailer weight is whar you should be able to get over the scales. So short hood pete with little cummins and super singles with a brand new great dane 48 with super singles. Total weight with one half tank of fuel 26,200. Great I can get 53.800 lbs of freight over the scales and on to fresno. On a daycab no less. From San Barnadino. All legal of coarse at 54.6 mph the whole way.

They sent you home kicking your lunch pale for that. Tell them you were looking for a job when you found this one.

You either have to have hourly card time or log book. You can just show on duty until your day is through.

All you need is bailing wire and duct tape. Oh yeah and one 5/8 bolt to lock the engine fan on in case the sender or fan clutch goes out.
