I am with werner... and no I am not a slob, not am I over weight... I have always taken care of myself and continued to when I began driving... I shower at least once a day, never pee in anything but a toilet, and wear clean clothes always.. even if I have to change clothes two or three times a day...
Right now I am pulling flatbed.. so after I untarp and unstrap my load, get the tarps folded and strapd wrapped up.. I go in and wash up and put clean clothes on... sometimes all I need is to change my shirt... other times I change my jeans, shirt and socks... especially if it is raining...
There are drivers out there who take no pride in themselves at all... but, I am guessing they were that waybefore driving...
Werner does not have a dress code... but, as stated it will serve you better to dress clean and neatly.. you will get treated better by shippers, recievers, D.O.T. and other drivers...

I am looking at going to school soon for my CDL, and personally, I always plan to look good. I always wear a polo now, and don't see any reason to stop taking care of myself after I start. That's my personal preference though.
Night Prowler Thanks this. -
I'm under the impression that when I go OTR, showering daily is almost an impossibility and I should instead count on three showers per week. When I do get those showers, I should count on repulsive experiences. I should count on shaving and brushing my teeth in sinks I want nothing to do with, and finding a toilet to go the serious business in is going to be a nightmare.
Is this picture not true?
I hope I can take care of myself every day when I'm OTR, but people on this message board lead me to believe that one doesn't because of the condition of the facilities. -
Truck stops showers are sanitized after every use.

If your company doesn't supply uniforms, although in my opinion every company should, you can't go wrong with Dickies. It makes a neat appearance, and wears like iron.

McCauley...i can't say you are entirely wrong. I shower every other day. Showers are cleaned after every use. In 8 months there has only been one questionable one. Said something to employee they gave me a different one
