USA CDL JOBS TRUCK DRIVER FORUM

How in the wide world of sports are O/O making it right now. Fuel prices are simply ridiculous, I just got a report on a surcharge of .46 CPM that is the highest I have ever seen it.. I wish everyone could pull together and just stop driving for a week and force these oil companies to drop prices, it is really starting to get out of hand.

I have been contacted by a couple of other sites who are proposing a movement among the O/O's for April of this year. This type of thing has been discussed before, I know. But it doesn't mean that if enough drivers got the word that it couldn't actually cause NOTICE.

We at DieselBoss definately agree with the concept that if the government were to temporarily suspend the fuel tax and the shippers/carriers were to pass that one to the consumer, there would indeed be a clear positive impact on the economy.

The challenge lies in organizing and following through with promises.

Thanks for the info brother !!

I JUST got off my last Tractor few day's ago [im an Independent Driver-OOIDA Member] and back to this keyboard for job hunting . That was my 5th or 7th [lost count] boss [O/O] that went out'a biz "in a row" since start of 2007. Im beyond heartbroken for me and each one i've gone down with. Fuel and Rates are doing it. So,,,,,,,,,,,, here i am; back on the market looking. It's a terrible feeling not being out their. Just terrible.
