A truck strick would be a good way to show how truck make America run. Sad thing is there are companyd that will see a strick as a way to make that buck when we park our trucks. A strick needs to be more then just one day. Let join together and make this happen. Good Luck and keep up the good work as we are one of the hardest workers out here. Thanks, Jim

the company i work for has several sister companys so when you get a load the price might be good when it starts out. but by the time they take a cut then i give 25% to my company then gas, tolls food and ect. there is’t much left for the truck.but when you have agents that can make more money loading a truck thats not leased to the company than they can loading a company truck. while your paying the 25%for him to find you a load you sit an the higher paying load goes to the other guybecause he(the agent) can make more money.

I am writing this to companydriver in PA. We all are not whiners. Some of us respect the work that truckers do and feel that a strike would really get the American government listening like nothing else can. You have the power to create something that may make a real difference and I hope that it happens.
God bless the truckers who participate.

I’M A RETIRED TRUCK DRIVER AND I THINK THAT THIS STRIKE SHOULD HELP EVERYONE IN THE LONG RUN BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT TRUCKERS HAVE TO DEAL WITH OUT ON THE ROADS, BEING AWAY FROM HOME SOMETIMES MONTHS AT A TIME JUST TO MAKE A FAIR AND HONEST LIVING. IT’S HARD TO UNDERSTAND THAT SETTING BEHIND A DESK ALL DAY. AND NOW THESE HIGH FUEL PRICES TAKE AWAY FROM LITTLE THE TRUCKERS MAKE.

THIS MESG IS FOR ALL THOSE WHO THINK THAT
THE TRUCKER STRICK IS ABOUT OWNER OPERTORS IT NOT , IT’S ABOUT ANYONE WHO PULL UP TO THE PUMP, IT’S ABOUT EVERY ONE WHO GOES TO THE STORE AN PURCHASE ITEMS. THE PRICE OF FUEL EFFECT THE WHOLE NATIONS FACT OF THE MATTER IS IT;S A BAD MARRIGE THAT HAS TAKEN A TURN FOR THE WORST. IN ORDER TO GET IT BACK ON THE RIGHT TRACK IT WILL TAKE EVERY ONE TO JUST SAY WE HAVE HAD ENOUGHT. LAST YEAR WHEN THE PEOPLE FROM THE BOARDER HAD A NATIONWIDE STRICK THINKING THAT IF THEY SHUT DOWN THE US WOULD SUFFER WRONG ANSWER, WHAT WILL HURT IF ALL THE TRUCKER SHUT DOWN THAT NOT GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE WE CAN’T STICK TOGETHER SO THAT ONE DAY THE NEXT GENERATION CAN HAVE A BETTER CHANCE. I WOULD THINK THAT IF THE OIL AN FUEL TRUCK SHUT DOWN THERE WILL BE NO TRAFFICE ON ANY HIGHWAY , NO SINCE OF A POLICE OPFFICE SITTING AN WAITING ON SPEEDER, THE ONLY THING THEY COULD DO IS SIT THERE AN TRY TO CATCH THE WIND.
