A trucker was on his way to an orientation, when he met up with two young ladies on the greyhound. Ultimately the girls had some cocaine. One thing led to another and up their noses went the white magical powder. Maybe I shouldn't joke about it but hey, what can I say? When anyone snorts drugs the day before he is scheduled to give a urine sample and submit to a DOT drug screen, it merits a few jokes. Trucker Robs Bank and Uses a Bobtail as a getaway car You heard it right. A truck driver decided to rob a bank. He then leaves the scene of the crime and proceeds to jump in the getaway vehicle. You guessed it right, a big rig. I guess he was trying to be less conspicuous. You can't write these stories as far as fiction goes. The stories that come out of the trucking community are just, how do I say it? Oh yeah, unreal, crazy and bizarre. Harley Vs Semi Truck

UPS Makes Cheap Offer For Drivers To Resign Jul 22, 2025

Show notes

UPS Makes Cheap Offer For Drivers To Resign. Wow, can you believe how much or little UPS offered their driver, to resign? We did the math. If a driver has ten years with UPS and takes the "buy out". He will receive $18,000 minus taxes. He will take home approximately $14,000. The problem is, he is probably making over 100K per year. So, they are offering their drivers, 2 months pay to leave behind a high paying job. Then the drivers will have to replace UPS with, most likely a job that does not pay that well. Which would you choose? UPS Makes Cheap Offer For Drivers To Resign Narcotics in Trucking Recently TalkCDL Trucking Podcast caught wind of a story. A driver that is prescribed a narcotic, actually believes he is allowed to be on the drug and be a semi truck driver. That's a big no no. Tune in and hear this bizarre story.
