Speaking of "where's waldo" any hear from Jeff or Lucinda at all anymore? I know they retired, but I kinda thought they stop in from time to time..

 

WTF send it to me so I can PO Big D again and see how fast I can get throw off that board if I want to.

 

Ok, a couple of questions.

1. What did Steve Booth do to get banned from here anyway? I'm in and out of here (in lately), and must have missed whatever it was.

2. I don't think I can pm on here yet so can someone send me the link to the other site?

Last I heard he was pulling a flat bed out of somewhere in the NE.

 

Steve Booth kept violating the board rules. He was banned for short periods several times and permanently banned the last time. His posts changed from entertainment to personal attacks. He had several opportunities to change his behavior and refused so he was banned. The last I heard he parked his truck and went back to working with computers. This is a very demanding business with many casualties. As far as the other website is concerned, I can't help you.

 

Booth Boy got ragged on quite a bit by certain people who felt he shouldn't be getting his authority because he "hadn't paid dues" like some of the people nay sayers. Surprising his personal attack personna didn't come out sooner after all the crap he got, or some misguided information.

And, yes, he has parked the truck, but is always doing work on it. Recently he got a new grill and misc stuff, and is currently having the frame painted and or snaded and other stuff. If I made what booth did in the laboratory doing research, I'd park my rig too! But, he didn't go back because he wasn't cutting it as an o/o, but they needed extra help at his old job. Granted, he did and will probably continue for rates that I will never haul for, but that is what it is lol.

Pardon me while I zip up my flame suit.

 

I swear you sit and wait for someone to mention Booth.

 

I agree with this post. I always liked reading his stories.His business practices werent affecting anyone elses lives although it was hard to tell by seeing how people got so bent out of shape by what he did.I was always amused that only the things he typed were considered personal attacks. But thats just my own opinion. I wish he would come back on the board actually.

 

The problem was, he would post something about his business practices that would guarantee criticism, and then he'd respond with personal attacks. Sure - he posted a LOT of stuff that wasn't attacks. But his skin was far too thin to be posting his stories on an open forum. That's why he demanded that he be given moderator powers, so he could delete at will whatever he didn't like. When his request was denied, he threw a hissy fit.

Well, his username hasn't been banned for over 6 months now, so if he wanted to come back, he could. Frankly, I don't really care, as long as he follows the rules.

 

How do you know how much he makes and where he works, have you been to his job?


If anyone would quit office job with more pay for trucking, he or she should be banned not by the moderators here, but by the higher powers above...

 

I know the town he works in, and what he does. The company's name, I do not. I'd think we're friends. We talk about 1-3 times a week, and I've met him in person a few times. Last time I saw him was in Mass this summer. We talk money, and we both don't bullcrap each other. He really is a great normal guy with a sense of humor if ya knew him.

I know crap rates influenced his decision when he decided to help out at his former job and came back on a contractual basis, but he said he should be out running in the springtime.

Anybody care what Teal95KW is doing? lol
