im a hard running driver,who came from a family of old school truckers.
i was raised old school,i have southern blood in me although ive never lived in the south,so some call me a misplaced rebel.
i will and do help all in need a clock isnt goin to keep me away from helpin those in need.
i started truckin in '09 but been in the business all my life,so when ive had some sit down meals with other drivers and spoke with them most to all told me im as old school as they are and to keep the dream alive.
so when i came to TT i wasnt goin to stay past my cdl trainin but then it hit me what if others need help? so i stuck around and im glad i did for i helped others help soon to be drivers get on track. i realized the true meanin to keep the dream alive and i am doin just that.
i do graphic designing for gaming leagues ,facebook avatars/headers,avatars for various sites,i work with an internet radio station.

U befriend a guard yes this may work but some are real dot failures and they will bring out a flashlight thats almost as good as a blacklight and check that trailer then what lol just sayin. dont be lazy get it done asap after every load that has meat.
He can bring that flashlight out all he wants to. The trailer is completely clean and dry.
k so its clean to the naked eye but not all blood plasma can be seen by the naked eye , and with black light it will show up.

I drove reefer to start and ill tell ya this , whenever ya haul a meat load hit the first washout ya find not just the ones ya know of, and why did ya have a washout only 4 days ago? did it take 4 days to run that meat load? hos i dont care bout i can make hrs come available thru dispatch or my loose leaf log book. or they will swap load. so ya can go 63 miles and get washed or ask ur dm for a spot to get a diferent trailer thats close by that ya cant get this one washed and explain why. when ya get new trailer ask for the dm to fax a log sheet of the trailer to shipper ur butt is now covered. for this trailers log will be sent and prove it had no meat product for some time.
i have had to do all these at one point n time in my career its not fun n its time consuming but if ya want the good pay ya do as ya need.

The first time I heard " hey westbound there's a full grown sittin in center field just past the pickle park, shootin yer donkey as you go by" I nearly fell out of my seat laughing.
Translation: there's a state trooper in the median past the rest area with a radar gun.
But because I drive for pretty much the slowest company trucks on the road, I don't listen to the cb hardly ever because of the daily, non stop bs said by other drivers about our slow trucks.
another for this is shootin ya in the face which is he is lookin right at ya with the radar, or ya have a sitter and however many chasers which is a goober snatcher , or ****roach (cop) , smokie with a radar that just sits and others go after ya .
doughnut brigade is more than one sitting together
steering wheel holder is a driver that has no clue on what he is doing , we have lots of those.
truck stop sitter , driver who rather be in truck stop instead of driving
solar powered truck a driver who wont drive after 5 pm

Some pull in bc 1 they dnt know how to back n are taught its safer to just pull in or 2 they r to tired to back safely.
all ya can do is be a professional and pull ur truck out safely , if ya cant clear him wake him up n ask him nicely to slide over a bit.

DOT/BMI/MEDICAL DISCRIMANATION
The only ones i know of that were looking into this and fighting it is ooida and ata, if ya dnt know what ooida is its a group for owner ops very strong like the teamsters union, and ata haha yea African trucking association they did and never will do anything for the American truck driver they are a weak organization. so in short if ur not an owner op , ya might as well do as many have done and bend over and well you know right from the Obama nation.
