    I was reading the paper "carry 100lbs up to 100ft." On the on line paper work. I wonder if they do a "work well" type physical testing to newbies? I did that to haul fuel. They checked your range of motion and recorded it. I had disc surgery back in '05. I was released with no restrictions. It would take an act of congress to get the doctor to dig up my file.

    Nope. I am a lease driver to Ryder. I have been here over 2 years. I work for a company that leases driver all over the Ryder system. I get vacation, BCBS, holidays, and a no match 401K. I need to step up the bennies, and $$$. I can only work 'til I am 70!

    I get to run a new Cascadia with an auto to run to Georgetown KY. I hope it doesn't have the radar safety crap some of the new ones do.
