ELD Updates & 4-Wheeler Safety: Meet the Pilot Behind Your Tech

Ever wonder what it's like to be both a company pilot AND an IT director? Darian Mateo lives this double life every day at Liquid Trucking, and his story will blow your mind. In this employee spotlight episode, Darian takes us behind the scenes of managing Liquid's ISAAC tablet rollout and ELD systems while moonlighting as Chief Company Pilot. Discover how giving the founder of Liquid Trucking, Roger Schmidt, flying lessons turned into an incredible dual-role career opportunity. From pre-trip inspections in the hangar to troubleshooting dispatch scheduling systems, Darian's got expertise most people can only dream about. But we're not just talking tech and aviation. We challenge Darian's legendary trivia knowledge (spoiler: we fail), hear wild anecdotal stories from the cockpit, and dive deep into "The Top 5 Things 4 Wheelers Don't Understand About Trucking", including the truth about stopping distance, blind spots, and why cutting off a semi is playing Russian roulette.
