    Yes it does...Scary to think your career could possibly be over before it really gets started...
    I wish you the best Y2K and hope it works out with you still driving...

    Man I hope so,I really need this job,I was unemployed for 16 months before getting this job having lost a job I held for 24 years due to the slump in the economy.

    Heh,well that would have been hard to do since the other driver was in the truck lol.
    Not something I would do anyway,I was raised to man up when I make a mistake and take whatever lumps I have coming then move on.
    Called my DM,he was cool and thanked me for calling before he got an email about it.
    Sounds like I'll get a slap on the wrist and sound talking to but hopefully no job loss.

    I'm sitting at Supervalue dist. center in Tacoma waiting to be unloaded and in pulls the Knight truck I clipped last night.
    Chatted with the driver a few seconds and told him my DM was cool,great guy and even shook my hand saying it happens and to just move on and not worry about it.
