    What's a driving test? I only had one for a job a swift. The rest of my employers must have seen that on my record and thought he does not need a driving test.

    Trucker Steve started at May trucking I believe?

    Guess it depends on the company. Seems it is mainly the large carriers that give them. I have had several jobs where the orientation was about 30 minutes, went and took a drug screen, and went back to the yard and they gave me the keys and fuel card. They gave me a load within the hour and I was on the road. As far as the drug screen, they did not wait for results, and no driving test or red tape whatsoever-simple.

    I work for a small (25 trucks) company. I did about a 10-15 mile road test.

    Did orientation with the owner for about 30-45 minutes and got keys and a credit card.

    Maybe he is referring to the country and not the bird.

    "The father was able to retrieve his hand gun and hold the murderer at gunpoint until the cops arrived".


    Did the gun still have ammunition in it? I would have been on my 3rd reload by the time the cops got there.... Just sayin'
     
    TB John and Hours Thank this.

    Mankee Courtesy of my bravery and the final frontier known as Google..

    Mankee (source Urban Dictionary)- The state into which a person enters after ingesting copious amounts of GBH (gina) or other specific recreational drugs. The "manking out" can be especially nasty when GBH is mixed with other drugs, Ketamine in particular.
    Example given : "Oh girl did you just see that trashy ##### in the alley way. She was mankee as"

    Here's the images that came up...

    Or maybe its a way to summon Yoo Man-kee ..Yoo Man-kee - Wikipedia

    Of course none of those are what was meant, but it was rather entertaining seeing the google results.

    Sirscrapntrucksalot - Remember when you had to actually read an encyclopedia to learn something? Peppridge Farms remembers.
