    So yea, 5 years ago I refused a drug test. I've been pretty open about it on these forums. Just finished the SAP program last week and Monday I start driving again. A good friend of mine has a handful of trucks leased onto a small company in KSC and I'll be driving one of his trucks after a week or two driving with him for a refresher. My time in purgatory is over!

    Good for you! I have been out for 2.5 years with an injury, and I can't get the time of day from most companies that I have applied to. Now I know that this can be done! Thanks for blazing the trail.
