    Gbtrucker,
    Don't know if this is the right thread for this but I thought the info was great. I have been reading others on this same subject and its been very helpful. Tell me that heating element you use do you use it directly in the containers that your wife sent with you that has like your lasagne or casserole in? If they are plastic I wondered ?
    Thanks for you info.

    Hey mike how are you? heres an update for you. I'm in the final stages for stericycle.Talked to TM just waiting for whiz quiz results.Everything else came back already.. Ps I drove containers today for UDS part time work. I wanted to get back into a truck before I went to stericycle so I could sharpen up my skills. I'd been out of a tractor for 6 weeks. I've been driving dump truck pulling a flat trailer.(just not the same). I missed the 10 speed tractor trailer.

    How was your home time?

    Hey MIke,
    I went to the Bronx's last night and old Murphy's law got me. My truck wasn't ready,the spare didn't have enough fuel,fuel card missing,direct diesel nowhere in sight. Started 1.5 hrs late,detour in ny right near my exit, bridge heights miss marked as low,U turns in the bronx's, remote for gate didn't work had to used push gate. Down pouring rain just as I started to drop 1 trailer and hook to the other. Rained so heavy at times I was going no faster than 45mph. ( drive to arrive,alive) finally make it back and had to yard jock trailer up to the plant.WOW WHAT A 2 WEEKS OF TRAINING IT HAS BEEN. Breakdown,Long Island & Bronx's in the same week solo. Plus, I went to most of our large & worst stops(wasnt bad). It can only get better from here. Sunday I run a trailer up to the compound on the Mass pike then on tue I start my normal line haul route 2 turns to Middletown Ct with doubles .
