    Question, if you've been a "trucker" for 35 years, shouldn't you be training the trainer?

    Not in this day and age. If you have been out of the game for at least a year most companies don't care if you have been driving for a hundred years. Somehow they assume all that knowledge experienced drivers have just magically flew out of their brains.

    Thanks, wasn't thinking. Actually taking a little time off could make you a better driver,sometimes.
