    Not really a horror story but let's say I drive for that one company known as bottom of the barrel... Rhymes with pwift. Current trainee with 125 driving hours. First day driving he slept for 5 hours during and just about every day afterward. Once I did a few drop offs I had all the macros and how shippers work down. My problem with him is he is super controlling when he's awake and always stressing me out trying to micro manage stupid things like which gas pump to pull into or which of the 2 side by side spots to pull into. Just wish he would sleep my entire driving time he doesn't even give me any good advice. Oh yeah also he's a slob 300 pound diabetic and smells like butt cheek. Took me saying I need a shower for 4 days before I got my first one ( was out for 6 days with just using baby wipes)
