My point is the company driver's actions do directly affect THEIR BOTTOM LINE, so they affect the bottom line of the BUSINESS. If every company driver screwed up and cost the company profit each day, the company would go broke quickly and the company driver is out of a job, not a comfortable place to be.

The degree with which the COMPANY DRIVER tries to be a SMART BUSINESSMAN, will directly affect the degree to which his COMPANY succeeds PROFITABLY (or AT ALL) in the BUSINESS OF TRUCKING, THEREFORE THE C/D is a BUSINESSMAN.

"Slack Adjuster", "Ball-Buster" maybe, "testicle thwack-er" NOT!! My point is everyone holding a CDL whether O/O or C/D is a BUSINESSMAN, my BEEF is actually with those that do not realize this point. I understand the disenfranchised hireling (C/D) not getting it, even though they should and I hope they will. My utmost pisstivity is with the O/O that has no clue, signs on to your authority, wreaks havoc and discontent and has no business principles except "I WANT MY MONEY."
WTF is your story? Are you the guy who is head strong and WANTS to BE an O/O? Because if you are then I just wasted this post!!!!
