m16ty Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Anybody here a member of The Truckers Report? I signed up there awhile back just to see what was going on. I've come to the realization that if the membership there is a snapshot of the trucking industry as a whole, we are in big trouble. I've never seen a bigger bunch of whiners and just downright idiots that claim to be professional owner operators. There are some people there that know what they are talking about but most you wonder how they have enough sense to get out of bed in the morning, much less operate a truck and stay in the black. I've gotten to where I just go there for comic relief and just shake my head at some of the stuff posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullheaded Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I used to go on it when I still had trucks. I liked to use it for entertainment. If you want a really good laugh.....read the thread Worst Companies to Work For. You will see all kinds of funny names, broken english and people that can't complete a sentence, LOL Ever since I left the trucking industry I don't even admit to anyone that I was a truck driver or owner operator. I'm too embarrassed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm too embarrassed now. Not to highjack the thread but I have an uncle that was in the RCMP for 40 years (started in the mid 60's). He is also embarrassed to tell anyone what he did for a living. There are a few occupations that were once respectable but are no longer. RCMP and trucking are 2 great examples. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyRebel Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I was reading a thread about some guy who just got his CDL and starting with a company & was asking how much experience he needed to have before his wife could ride along with him. I had just taken my boy for his 1st ride (he was 6 months old at the time), and at one of our stops I put him on my lap. What does he do? One hand immediately on the wheel with the other reaching for the shifter & I was lucky enough to snap a pic. So I took that pic & turned it into a meme..."How much experience do I need before my mommy can ride with me?"😂 1 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

navypoppop Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 If you think The Truckers Report Forum is something else look at Trucking Truth.

james j neiweem Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I go there sometimes to see what the fleets are buying for trucks. I wonder if there is a better place to go to see who is buying what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
