OK green horns go read me Unka again, and take notes.

Instead of calling him "Unka_D", I think I'll start calling him "Unka_Confucious"!

LOL!!! Patience Grasshopper...... !!!! And please!!! Not Buddha!!! I would have to start eating at the buffet to give that impressiion!!! More like a dried up old fisherman....

Actually, not so much wisdom. Just willing to voice my opinion and also de-bunk the myth that an individual who has never been an OTR driver knows first-hand what I, as a driver, am dealing with every single day.

One thing I did when I first started was read the DRG from cover to cover before I was through orientation. I've also kept up with the changes...

Knowledge is power. The trick to this is never letting others know just how much you know.

I love it when I am told something is against ROEHL policy. If I have found a reference to that in the DRG, well and good. If it's not in there, I raise the BS flag and tell the person spouting the policy to show it to me in writing..... Amazing how many times people invent "policy" just to keep from having to take responsibility for their actions.... Hmmmm....

And you know, I have examined my CDL numerous times and I still haven't found anywhere on that document that says it belongs to anyone but me...

Good luck to you....

Some days it seems like forever, others just a short time... About 5 years or so... And have run in all divisions at one time or other... Even pulled a reefer once....

Call your DSR or fleet manager and ask him/her. Being in Florida, you're probably in a good position to haul a reefer.

You would think, but Reefer doesn't come down to Florida yet. I checked while I was in Marshfield. No openings for flatbed either

Unfortunately, I can't give any good information on the Reefer division. I pulled one, once, to get out of TX when there was no Curtain or Van loads to get me back up North but that was it... Sorry.....
