    Don't worry I already sent Chinatown a pm asking about companies that will hire me with a recent dope conviction in a big truck. I should be rolling again in no time.

    You're good to go!
    It was probably oregano in that zip lock bag; that stuff smells like weed. I gave some to a woman I was flirting with and she smoked a bunch of it and never knew the difference. She said "Wow, that's some good stuff." I gave her the whole bag and told her there's plenty more where that came from. That's a true story! She loved me after that & I was her best boyfriend because I always had a big baggie for her.

    Only an idiot would get caught. It's called natural selection. Thinning the herd.

    Years ago, when stimulants were a common scene in trucking, we were intelligent enough to keep things "low profile " When someone got popped it was because they were stupid, or careless.

    Thank goodness those days are long gone. I sleep well each night, and I feel so much better, too.

    My conscience is clear when I approach a checkpoint , as well.

    Long time ago.

    High speed chicken feed.

    But don't tell that to the cops. Tell them it's baking soda or laundry detergent.

    I used to work for a feed manufacturer right beside I 70. The owners always provided space and employees to help search a suspected trafficker. We unloaded a lot of lettuce cabbage, fruit etc.
    I remember once I had to back the truck to the dock for them. The canine went off on the fuel caps, driver had smoked crack before fueling. The dog got him, then me after I had been in the cab. Wouldn't leave me alone. The state patrol said it could take several days to get the scent off of my skin.

    The most memorable was the trailer they backed up to the dock, cut the seal flung up the door. At the very rear was a large bale on a skid, it was his last stop. Literally.
