    yah yah yah sewerman told me he told you to post the pet peeve re whiskers in the sink but you wouldn't for fear of offending me. lol. For those that look like mangy dogs due to patchy beards, yes clean shaven is the way to go. I chose to shave before i leave for the week and keep it on my face to keep the chill off. and if you've ever had the pleasure of using the sink after me at a terminal or truckstop, as one of the last boyscouts out there, you're welcome, i leave my area cleaner than i find it. cant wait to meet you and get one of your wooden nickels lol but you can keep the headwinds that seem to have come with the one you gave sewerman
     
    JimTheHut Thanks this.

    we're through there all the time. Like the old slug a bug game when you see a volkswagon beetle. once you start looking for them, you'll see them everywhere.

    Thank you Dollylama. I am just a little nervous about getting through the orientation process, specifically the driving test portiion. I got my cdl on my own so I havent had as much drive time as someone right out of a school. I can do the job but I understand that they have alot of applicants and a very low margin for errror. So if anyone has some detailed info on the driving portion, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Try to take the ramps 10 mph under the speed limit, don't run over the curves ( maverick spread axles require u to turn wider than vans) and obey all speed limits. Don't sweat it too much, not that bad. Good luck partner!

    Almost done w my trainer. We delivered a load of slinkies on Appletton today and got loaded with another one same day! Not my favorite load so far, but getting a hang of it. Specially when we have to rato on the middle of a snowstorm. Good luck to my partner hard hat that is probably in the Rock already. I guess they will be sending me overthere in the middle of the week for sim test.
    Good luck to everybody outhere specially the ones going up north! :biggrin_25523:
