    Hey gdyupgal!! just caught up with your thread (since you and I have been in a few together now!) and huge CONGRATS to you girl!!! Like everyone said keep that positive attitude-it may be tough some days but you just seem so full of ''piss and vinegar'' that you will be just fine!! I hope you will able to get on line some time ( you said you didn't have a laptop and pay as you go cell) maybe someone would let you borrow theirs so you could update us??? Would be great to hear from you every now and again!!
    Good luck and congrats again!!!!

    So when do you start your tanker yanking?

    Ya know, I think that's the first time I've ever typed those to words in a sentence next to each other.

    I start the 27th..it's ins. regulated that you ride with a trainer for 3 or more weeks which is just fine with me..they are hurt'n for drivers but houseing is an issue but luckily I have that taken care of..some companies have man camps for their employees but I'm taking a few of my horses so I will be staying with friends..yeeehawwwwww

    Congrats!! That is a really good field to start off in. If you can handle that you should be able to do anything. The pay is really good to start also! This type of driving will really give you a feel for refined driving. This is necessary in the owner op. world. Saves on tires, trannys, brakes etc... I hauled horses commercially and the same practices applied. Sloshing fuel, sloshing horses same thing right!? Anyways, slow down-pay attention repeat this to yourself everyday! Good luck to you and please drive safely! Great job!
