    I've seen short men and women pulling flatbeds. They carry an aluminum step ladder with them. It can be stored on the back of the tractor. I'm not short, but carried the ladder anyway and it was a great help at times.

    The right YouTube video(s) should help out with that.

    I don't think he should mention CR England if he wasn't an actual employee.

    Yes, they took forever to finally get back to him and they have one for December 27th, so if he can't find anything before then, we have that option. Hoping that they don't do the same test, if he can't get in the back of the trailer!

    Exactly why I was shocked that they failed him for not being able to get in the trailer? Shouldn't he have been given the option of using a step ladder or something?

    The internet may have some good videos that address that trailer access problem.

    Especially for those who are dimensionally challenged.

    About how tall is he, anyway?
