    Not hard, just have to be smooth. I pull beer like I'd pull a tanker and when you have a load full of kegs you can feel a surge like a tanker if you hit the brakes too hard.

    Slow on the curves and leave plenty of space in front of you to minimize breaking force.

    Ok I haven't gotten in contact with Alice about the judgment of driving record. I was approved but I don't want to quit my job to be sent home over lack of communication. It's also why no one will hire me.
    About the inverter thing, I only care about it circumference. Even if regional, the nights IM away from home I want to save money. I want regional anyway, but, will do over the road till I can. Maybe even train later.

    I meant to say microwave not circumference. I only want use of inverter for that reason.

    Anyway spoke with Alice few minutes ago and in sort of a hateful tone said they don't run driving records till they get the $100 deposit. So if IM denied that's probably money down the toilet. Knew there was a catch somewhere. My driving record hasn't even been approved. They shouldn't even send acceptance letters till everything is checked first. That's a recruiter for ya. Oh, as far as working with you on the 400 due on first day. You would have until the end of the week I pay it.

    If Millis payed for a background check on everyone that applied that doesn't show up... I'm sure that would be a LOT of out of pocket expence for nothing... if they have your $100 bill, you are more than likely show up to class..

    If you haven't left anything off your app, and they have read over it and aproved it... there shouldn't be nothing to worry about.. If you left anything off.. different story..

    Very true. And although I can't believe it, it's been over a year, since I was accepted and Alice never had a hateful tone and even today I think she was pretty upfront and honest.

    She was probably just very busy. I have made it very clear about all my history up front, both verbally and in writing, which is why I was surprised they said accept. No other company would because of my driving record. That's why I called to ask. Didn't seen right. I have accessible Speeding ticket from 05/10 and following too close ticket in company can in 04/11. Guess I thought they would have guidelines that would tell them yes or no like other companies do.
