COURTESY FLUSH
Definition: The act of flushing the toilet the instant the nose cone of the poop log hits the water and the poop is whisked away to an undisclosed location. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME.

WALK OF SHAME
Definition: Walking from the stall, to the sink, to the door after you have just stunk up the bathroom. This can be a very uncomfortable moment if someone walks in and busts you. As with all farts, it is best to pretend that the smell does not exist. Can be avoided with the use of the COURTESY FLUSH.

If you work for a LTL carrier then you may only run local or regional. Some of them have short-haul or local drivers who run a route and pickup LTL's all during the day. These may go back to a central distribution point where the pieces are sorted and may be put on a truckload carrier for delivery. These can be their own trucks or those that are used from another carrier. It is basically 2 separate segments of the market. When I do LTL I may only have 2-6 drops. A regular LTL carrier could have double or more since they may pickup smaller packages or pallets. Both are LTL but operate somewhat differently.

Have to agree with Gman here, ran a few LTLs before and was done within 9 to 11 hours with 3 stops on the trailer.

I never did like the multi-stop LTL stuff. All them picks and drops and appointment times and people hollarin where's my freight? Well buddy if this a-hole at stop #3 wasnt holdin me up you'd have your precisous skids and I'd be on my way. But nooooooo. I tell you alot of these brokers who in my opinion are nothing but third rate thieves they don't know nothing about heavy multi stop BS. And you pretty much have to cook the book when you run LTL and get held up.

Then you get these loads were it's 4 skids and you show up and the guy don't got no towmoter, he's got no dock, he's got no pallet jack and you're parked in the street with your flashers on wonderin just what the hell you're gonna do. "Oh well, take it over to Yellow Freight and have them deliver it." OK how much am I gonna get paid? "Nothing cause if we ain't getting paid then you ain't either". WELL BUDDY THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM NOT MINE!

You see what I'm gettin at? Sometimes that stuff pays good but aint worth the hassles you gotta go throough getting it off your wagon. Other times you can get in and out and keep rollin but I tell ya I don't like that LTL stuff never did.
