    Actually? The overflow is draining into a one gallon soup can. The reservoir is only a quart. Yet that which has spilled will soak into the concrete floor. It will keep it from rusting away.

    I know your response. But concrete wont rust.

    My response. See? It does a great job doesnt it? LOL

    Some of the questions on the hazmat test I just took were tough, and were about things a company driver wouldn't even need to know, like how long records of spills are kept.

    Sure do, and pickups too.

    I had a skid of concrete sealer to deliver today, and later some empty drums to pick up for recycling and a nuclear densometer after that.

    Chewing tobacco will stain concrete for life, diesel fuel will deteriorate asphalt.
    Diesel fuel on concrete attracts aliens...I think I read that online somewhere, so it must be true.

    When you miss a turn, remember, you drove your way into that mess, it’s up to you to drive your way out, don’t go to looking into turning it around unless you know it’ll fit, if you have doubts, it usually won’t work.

    Ive learned to trip plan not only my destination but also an exit plan of how to get around the block if i miss my turn... when i first started driving , i am not really one to get flustered but there is something about being lost in a city u never been too before . Especially when ur a brand new driver too... adrenaline rush , frustrating , aggrivating . Thats why we have all the videos of guys tearing their trucks up or getting stuck on mountain... its the flight or fight syndrome...

    moral to the story , you cant ever get lost if you always plan a way around the block or a way to get back on the interstate and circle back to try again... but if ur anything like me . Even with exit routes and circle back routes , calling customers for directions.... Some jobsites are impossible to get into from a certain direction.. Guess thats just trucking , something always happens that u didnt plan for ..
