    "I watched a YouTube video about truck driving. I was thinking about driving for Western Express. Lots of people tell me they aren't a great company, but you have to start somewhere. Do they test your hair for pot? After I finish their free school, can I quit and work for a better company?"

    We were chatting about that earlier. They do test for drugs. Almost all of them and every job you apply in the trucking industry. Just lay off the pot for a while and you'll be just fine.

    One thing that you don't get is this is an industry of isolation. We no longer get out of the truck, the lunch counter is barren and for the most part everyone has their way of doing things and think they know it all.
