Default The Importance of Time Management

There's a time for watching porn.

There's a time for sleeping.

There's a time for driving and trying to make a buck.

There's no time to do all three at the same time . .

Police say trucker was tired, watching porn when fatal crash occurred : Home: The Buffalo News


OF PARTICULAR INTEREST TO TEAM DRIVERS:

There's a time for your co-driver to take the wheel and try to make a buck.

There's a time for bludgeoning your co-driver to death.

It is unwise to bludgeon your co-driver to death while he's driving . .

Holy Ballzzzz ... I used to drive for Millis

They lost 2 rigs while i was there from drivers trying to keep driving after having been drinking booze for several hours.

They had 5 killed (via fire and explosion) from a O/O driving over 19 hrs and getting t-boned in the fuel tank at a construction site

Those guys at Millis had the worst luck when it came to bonehead drivers piloting their rigs

The whole time I was reading about the co-drivers, I was expecting it to list the company as CRST. They are known for putting total strangers in a truck together. Hire you as a solo, but match you up with another driver to run team.

Yeah they will literally pair you up with any warm body in the room. Not even attempt to see if you can get along. I was put of the terminal here in OKC with them for all of two weeks.
