What a hoot! A JB recruiter called me yesterday and asked if I knew any drivers looking for a job.

I have never, nor would I, work for JB and haven't got the first clue why they would call me. I inquired about that. Not much of a response. I did tell him that if I knew a driver down on his luck, I would not kick him while down by refering him to JB. Just the night before, I unloaded at a Sams near Chicago next to a JB driver that had had enough after 8 years and was going back to tanking regional.

Oh well.... there is a trucking company for everyone, and JB might just be the ticket for some. Not me. They have never been able to even match what I have already, let alone exceed it.

 

All the coolie carriers suck. Log 70, work 80-100, paid for 50. No wonder they're always hiring!!!

Run away and don't look back. Irregular-route OTR coolie trucking is the absolute pits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Some people make mistakes and learn from them. They are given a second chance. Too bad CFM was a little slow on the up-take. :wink:

So what's the deal with CFM? Did you guys ban him? I honestly don't think that was needed. Yeah, he gets a little rough at times, but he does offer up a valid point. He also is a good source for those looking for advice on LTL work. Let the guy back in. The whiners who get upset every time he offers a dissenting view just need to ignore him. It's really that easy.

 

Well, I never cared for him, and ignored him unless it was a thread on LTL stuff. That said, it wasn't that he offered a dissenting view, it was the same screed each and every time, with nothing new to offer.

I don't have a problem with him being back (but it isn't my board, so who cares?) but I vote he be required to keep the same avatar so that it's easier for me to skip his garbage.

 

Well if you MUST know, it was posts like this:

He had been warned SEVERAL times about things like this.

Yes, CFM was ban but a window was left open. He chose to close it. Same thing happened to others and they made a choice to follow the TOS and share their knowledge.

The most recent example is Cluggy ( sorry to put you on the spot ). BEFORE: Every post was JB Hunt sux. NOW: Some of the best posts I have read were from him giving information on tankers and hauling fuel. THAT is what we are here for!

We have areas for blowing off steam, to joke around, ect.... Keep it there.

This board is VERY liberal in what we allow. More than I would have thought at first. But they have found something that works. Very hard to do in an open forum. Go to any other site and see for yourself. We'll stick with what works.
:wink:

Your doing a fine job Ridge. No complaints here.

 

I think I'm a very good example of how liberal this board is. It's one of the reasons I enjoy posting here.

 

No kidding, you're the biggest liberal I know. Gore Vidal, look out!

 

ROFL :lol:

If you only knew.
