    Just be careful with that. Drivers have been known to get into trouble making unwelcome advances toward customers. I've heard of guys getting banned at certain customers for saying the wrong thing, which causes problems for dispatchers. The thing is you won't know if it's unwelcome until it's too late. Once I got my dream job, it was all professional. I'd be nice, but not flirty. You never know, she may slip you her number on a Post-It note someday (it happened to me a couple times!).

    Keep the pen out of company ink IMO. Even if she is the one who propositions me first, I'm still very cautious and usually politely turn them down. Not worth risking a great paying job.

    they can get all hot and sweaty at the fryolater. or one can butter the others buns?

    makes about as much sense as being on the road looking for love.

    You had better be cautious.

    A buddy of mine talkef to this female driver on the radio. He fell for her hard. We stopped to eat at a restaurant and as I was leaving the restaurant, I saw my friend holding hands with a wookalar walking back to its truck.

    It was like one of those mythical creatures that lured men to the death with a pretty voice.

    This thing was hideous to behold. Looked like Big John Studd in drag, had fangs and a front butt, at least 400lbs and green and pink hair.

    So, what do you do when your friend gets trapped by a wookalar?

    IMAG0805.jpg I met my wife when we were driving for the same company. We lived in the same town and parked at the same spot when we were home on the weekends. We dated six months then got married. Ran team for a while after the wedding. I've since gotten a local job and she's no longer driving. Our two year wedding anniversary is coming up very soon.

    And fyi, she's not your trypical female trucker. Very pretty, very athletic (she's 5'6" and 120lbs.)

    Here's a pic from a couple of weeks ago of me and my beautiful lady trucker
