    Do take something in the way of a jacket/hoodie... it can get cold in a lot of places at night - not to mention if you have to hang out in a cold storage while you're being unloaded.

    O ya.... it was 34 in Kingsman Az, in mid June one night. Had the ice warning go off. Scared the living daylights out of me. Clothes are a must, warm clothes and cool clothes.

    LOL.... dropped an Ice Cream load (reefer set # -20F)... security guard asked if I had load locks in the trailer that I wanted back & if so he'd break the seal.

    As I get back out with the load locks he looks at me like I'm from Mars...

    Guard: You jumped in there in just a t-shirt, shorts, & no gloves like it was nothing... better you than me, it's d*mn cold in there

    Me: I'm from Maine

    Guard: OK, that explains it.

    I'm wondering how Prime handles car accidents for CDL school applicants. Two years ago, I was delivering flowers for a local flower shop in a 4 wheel delivery van. I had just gotten into the running, parked van after delivering to the door of a customer when one of the residents on the street flew out of their driveway without looking in reverse and backed their car right into the front of my parked van. I did not get a ticket but the police were called and the other guy did.

    Got a copy of my MVR today and it's on there. Of course all it says is "accident" without stating if it was my fault or not, which makes perfect sense...

    Prime is my #1 choice by a longshot and I'm going to be upset if I get turned down and have to go elsewhere. I'm really hoping this accident won't become a pain in the ###.
