Definition of OTR???

[GMAN]

I'm done with this one.

FINALLY!! We will count on you to keeping your word.

I knew that we could count on you to not be able to keep your word.

well, i am sorry that i asked this question. however just like the cb, bring up a topic that is a bit touchy and sit back and giggle as everyone argues for hours on end...a good way to keep awake. but since lBJ was being so persitant as to which ltl company gman worked for i will ask the question of lBJ yet again...which company do you work for? i got a hundred dollar bill that we get no answer.

I don't remember anyone making $8 hundred dollars an hour 35 years ago.

Give it up GMAN. Every time you try and talk about LTL you prove how much you dont know. Everything is about bill counts and weight. A bill is a shipment, it could be 1 skid or 200 tires or anything in between. Bills per hour and bills per stop are tracked by management. An average sized terminal probably picks up, sorts, and reloads on outbound trailers around 5-600 bills a day. And also delivers about the same each day from inbound trailers. A busy dock is like bumper cars at the amusement park. There are no slackers and some people are even afraid to go out on the dock cause forklifts are flying around everywhere. LTL is a fast paced operation and dock workers and city drivers are under alot of pressure. Thats why I'm a road driver, I'm too lazy to work the city! LOL! You may know alot about trucking but you sound like a spin doctor trying to talk about LTL. You saying you know LTL is like me saying I'm OTR because I use a highway to get there.

Hold it one cotton pickin second!!!

That there is blasphemy! Sayin a "Union" worker isn't a SLACKER! Why....that would be like sayin ....Cyanide works every single day he possibly can, at Superior carriers!!!

Blasphemy I say! BLASPHEMY! :twisted: :twisted: :wink:

What they ALL have in common, is not being at home every night. Which is the definiton of a "local Wuss!"

I got your wuss right here Hobo. :wink:

Well, send him BACK.... will ya?? I need him to unload my trailer!

I've seen the OTR characters who hang out at the truck stops and I've seen local drivers. The wuss would be the steering wheel holders wearing the baggy shorts, wife beater, and flip flops while playing video games waiting for the shower.

That would be THEM! The guys who couldn't hack OTR, and are just biding their time until they can get a local job! :wink:

LBJ, Snowman

you guys dont know nothing about LTL. I do the real LTL work. I mean if i take a 1/2 a dump truck load of stone some where that means it is LTL less then truck load. So intill you guys do that you dont know nothing.

[Bumper]

Actually you start out with a full load but after half of it bounces out onto the roadway and my windshield, you end up delivering half a load..... :x

No thats LDL, less than a dump load.

Well...I think I screwed up going Local.
I want OTR again now. I forgot about this time of the year...!!
(stupid-stupid-stupid) :evil:

Our fat butt Sasquatch wimmin go into the creeks and streams now chasing Salmon.
They come home stinking like fish and smelly wet dog, with that nasty wet fur...

you ask her...how was your day sweetheart?...
and she gives you that happy grunt-snarl (wookie like)
and smiles at you...
her breath knocking you down and those fish scales caught between her teeth.
....yeetch...I want outta here!!

[jd112488]

i guess i get to keep my hundred dollar bill...i am shocked. not really, BJ is all, damn sorry again, LBJ is all mouth.

[rigidsporty]

Well after reading this post I've come to the conclusion OTR stands for... "ON THE RAG!"
