    JB that's exactly what happened to me when i drove for Hiner Transport. We were asked to be at the yard for an announcement and sure enough the company had been sold to First Fleet.

    Yes. You need to get your butt in the seat and get moving.

    A guy who used to work with me spent his army time as an orderly. One day he say a friend was getting a physical and when it got to that exam, he snuck in and grabbed the guys shoulders just as the doc inserted his finger! Lol
