    YES!! That's is the one! I've been watching Abe and I really felt for him. The video scared me just a bit but made me angry even more.

    I'm counting the days till orientation! I'm also waiting until the last minute to let the goatee go... Ah well... I know they provide uniforms. Do they allow you to choose your preference as far as polo or button up? Pants or shorts or both? I'd wear shorts year round...

    Yes, you order the type of uniforms you find comfortable. Cintas selection is quite good and very comfortable. I preferred the polo shirts with pocket. Very comfy.

    hardhat and steel toes are not required that I know of
    the only service center that has wifi is Tifton right now, they say they are going to put wifi in at other service centers

    My 13 Prostar has a 1500w inverter and a 110 volt power supply that runs off the generator. I have a coffee pot, microwave, 13" TV and a Powerchill cooler. In the Prostar, pull the drawer out of the right cabniet and your stand up cooler will side right in there. On the Cascadia you need to trim the lower lip off on the lower space and your standup cooler will fit in there. I'm not a fan of cooler's and Fridges sitting on the passenger seat. Order the uniforms you are comfortable with.

    On the web site they allude that you can sleep 9 out of 10 nights in a Averitt yard. Do you find that to be true? Also, can you take the truck home or not as the closest yard to me is 110 miles from the house. Eventually I would move closer to a yard, but not first with a new company.
