yes, each company is most certainly different.
if you take care of your workers, they will most certainly try to take care of you as well.
but when you work for LTL or truckload companies, and are basically "just a number", you do as told.
and I NEVER argued or debated many company policies.....it's how i lived and survived 48 years in this business.
Must have tools

Here's what I recommend:
Vice grips (once had a tandem release that wouldn't hold, vice grips held it enough to slide the axles)
Electronic contact cleaner (sometimes you can spray it on the electrical contacts to get the ABS light to go off)
Gloves for pre-trip and drop and hook (keep them behind the driver seat for easy access)
Gloves for fueling (I prefer those yellow soft leather ones - keep in side box)
large funnel for adding engine oil
Hammer with claw end as mentioned above
2.5 lb small sledge style hammer for banging on the brakes in winter
Screwdriver to remove glad hand grommets
Snips for cutting those thin metal seals (truck stops sell these for $10)
