    Because people that smoke don't always think of other people!. Now before you say that's not true I will say I have people that smoke and don't do it in my house or car, but I have some people that do! so it is possible you wouldn't but it is probable.

    I am not sure what you are trying to say but I do agree with your first statement that most smokers don't usually think about others around them.

    Because if you were a smoker why wouldnt you smome in your own truck? U obviously wouldnt be offended by smoke.
    if you have time to stop and smoke outside your truck you wouldnt get much trucking done

    One of the many reasons I don't smoke. I am sure you know how much time is lost/wasted due to smoke breaks. I witness it everyday.

    I was looking for more info on Schneider and stumbled on this. Some things I am very opinionated on and personal hygiene is one. There is no excuse for being a nasty mo fo.

    I don't hold anything against smokers. I'm a smokeless tobacco user so that would make me a hypocrite. What I do hate is the smoker with no manners that thinks it's ok to blow smoke in my face. I've been tempted several times to spit tobacco juice on them.

    I have been trucking 4 years and can count on one hand the number of times I have gone over 24 hours without a shower. Those were caused by some delay that left me stuck at a customer for my break.

    If its a tight run time wise I will sometimes split break 8 and 2. That gives you 2 hours for a shower without impacting a delivery or loading appointment and insures you look presentable at the customer. Buy 1000 gallons of fuel a month at Loves and you get unlimited showers for the next month. If you get up before 5 AM there is almost never a wait. I like to start my day with a shower.

    I just hope to God that Swift puts me with a Trainer who showers at least every other day. If I get stuck with a Stinky Bastardd I'm gonna buy a case of beans and fart all day every day.
