    Where are you going to be out of? I never worked for WW, I did talk to one of their drivers at a papa johns dc in Jersey. He was bringing in flour from Fostoria. I had sugar.

    Anyway, he left me with the impression that WW would be a good company to work for if i didnt want to be local. Nice fella he was.

    Good luck, dont enjoy the cake work too much. I mean this is trucking, the job has to suck a little even if the unloads are pieces of a cake. *pun intended*
     
    WesternPlains Thanks this.

    From all the research I've done. I have to agree with him. Can't say I know for sure, yet.
    WW does alot of local. From what I understand. That is unstable. I could work for TriMac local. Same reason I won't do that.

    I appreciate the joking and 'pun'. I"m seriously looking forward to it.

    It seems to me that everything is done. They just have to get the report in Iowa. Then he can call me in.
    It is in Denver. Headquarters in West Burlington Iowa.
     
    Blackshack46 Thanks this.

    I Measured the coffee table and it is 20 inches. I couldn't believe it. My wife told me not to try it with that. She suggested I get my work platform. I measured it and it was 20 inches also.
    I didn't have a problem doing it 20 times. Big relief.

    A big woman gives you shade in the summer and heat in the winter.

    This is what happens when one doesn't read the entire thread and doesn't know the joke had already been told.

    Seriously people... AZPete motivated me to measure my leg. Just below the knee is 20 inches. Just above is 24 inches, or two feet. I could swear that box was just above my knee.
    If that's the case. Have to take it for granted that is all she had. I'm confident she will put it in the report.
    I hope she puts in that my legs are aching a day later.

    Oh and AZPete.... Isn't it funny how wives always spoil the fun stuff? Like jumping on the coffee table? :)
     
    Lepton1 and AZ Pete Thank this.

    In my career I have seen women have trouble with raising and lowering landing gear and sliding tandems. Im not politically correct and never will be. If a female can't unload, pull these pins or raise and lower a recalcitrant landing gear, she can't do this job! Of course this also applies to men. Yes there are tricks like cheater pipes etc that can be used. However sometimes only physical force will work. I used to know a trainer that refused to do this if he had a female student. If she could not do it he would not certify her.
