A crappy question

This is a question that's always been my hangup in considering a career in driving.

I have IBS so sometimes I need to stop urgently. I know that when I get to driving on my own, I could bring a camping toilet with me.

What about while training though? What are the odds I'd get with a trainer who would be ok with me bringing one?

Maybe this guy might be a candidate.

 

No chance

 

if i was a trainer and my student took a #### in my truck. id probably throw him out of the truck.... while moving...

 

Tell the company about the issue and ask to have a trainer that's understanding.
Schneider has the shortest training period of 18 days, I think.

 

Back in the day I had a colleague who suffered from IBS. One day he's stuck on I-95 in a traffic jam in Philly. Uh oh, he needed to stop. He pulls his service van over to the shoulder and gets in the back to do his business. A trooper drives up behind him, gets out and looks in the front windows, doesn't see anything and walks back to his cruiser. Fortunately, the officer didn't see him on his bucket. He gets out of the back of the van which then triggers the officer to get out of his car. For a few long minutes, it was a tense situation. When my buddy tells the story, you need oxygen cause you're laughing so darn hard.

I feel your pain.

 

Stock up on Imodium for training is about all can add.

 

Where’s @otterinthewater when ya need him?

 

if you have documented IBS, then your primary care doctor should give you a prescription.

if you only think you have IBS, and you do not have any documented proof, then seek a professional ASAP, and get started on meds.

there are some meds that will stave off or control IBS.

otherwise, you ain't gonna be taking a portable ANYTHING with you on a trainer's truck.

i would not allow it either.

 

Not Intended To Be Harsh or Demeaning!

How Is Handling IBS In Your Private/Personal Vehicle??
Do You EVER Travel Very Far From Home/Local Area??

IF There's No Medication To Curtail Said IBS IMMEDIACY, You'll Not Fare Well!!

Theoretical Scenario:
You're Sitting Still In a LONG Traffic Backup Due To A Myriad Of Reasons & You're Suffering An IBS Onset While In Number 2, 3 or 4 Lane!
What Action/s Is/Are Required To Mitigate The Situation?
If You're Then Not Likely To Move Anytime Soon, The Camp Bucket Seems The Only Feasible Solution EXCEPT You're With An Agitated Trainer In Passenger Seat!

Trucking Is Not An All Around Employment Solution, There Are Some Restrictions Despite What Any "recruiter" Has claimed & Will claim!

Hopefully For Thee, There Will, A Solution, Be Presented!!
