    I have a friend who is penning a book and she needs to pick the brain of someone familiar with that aspect of the industry.

    I'm supplying her with a link to this thread. She may register here, or may not.

    Either PM me or just reply to this thread and I'll pass the information on.

    Thanks in advance.

    I would guess, that might prove difficult. If you haul stuff like that. Part of your skill-set, might be, not discussing it.

    My sister works at a large mail order pharmacy. Their drivers aren't allowed to say anything about what they do.

    I know. I did hear from someone who used to do it, and I am going to get them to exchange email addresses. I think she just wants to learn the jargon, so the book is intelligently written and accurate. I'm sure Tom Clancy talked to a lot of military people along the way.

    She's a brilliant writer and just doing her homework. Nothing more.

    Your not gonna get too many ppl willing to talk on an open forum. Hauling it is dangerous, whether your escorted or not.

    Ive hauled a few of those loads before. I wont discuss pick ups or deliveries, but you might be surprised what they consider "pharmaceuticals."
