[QUOTE="xracer, post: 88065, member: 2209"] Danny, I agree with you 100% and on occasion I have seen the company agree with the fact that a paid over driver that does the right thing in the long run cost the company far less money than the run and gun hotshot that gets their numbers for them. We had a driver that retired approx 5 years ago that would run almost 2 hours over every day but would never get a complaint or followup and the mechanic said that he does not remember ever even putting a clutch in that truck(and it was a vintage 1971 P600) and the bosses would say that they prefer a driver like him in comparison to another driver that we have that would run an hour and a half paid under but recieves a multitude of complaints and followups(many of which he pays out of his pocket) and his truck is constantly in the shop but the following day they would be pushing for more performance again, which usually costs the customer quality of service.
