    How does he know what Meth smells like? I'm in my late 50's and don't have a clue what it smells like.

    But you know what weed smells like? ;)

    I've never smoked it, but I have been in the vicinity. It smells a bit like "concentrated refinery," if that helps.

    Lincoln will almost certainly pull that driver in immediately for a piss test. I've heard of them doing it on reports of drinking. One day when I was working Cheyenne Walmart they fired four drivers for alcohol. They don't play.

    Actually, never smoked it, but like you, been close enough to it being smoked that I could catch a wiff of the aroma...plus my company's home terminal is right next to a place that has something to do with legal weed for dispensaries, and when they're doing their thing, the whole area stinks. Honestly don't know how anyone could purposely smoke that crap. I would rather stick a dog turd up my nose to kill the stench.

    But honestly, rather than calling the company, he should have called the cops. If the dude was stoned on the fuel island, he had the intention of driving so the cops could have given him a free ride to the graybar hotel.

    Somehow he knew..i know one thing, without that video, i more than likely wouldn’t have believed it but that video spoke volumes…he definitely was off in space so to speak with his actions and such.

    My tablet here at Schneider makes an occasional “ding dong” tone, akin to a doorbell. I’ve called the IT gurus about it and nobody seems to have an answer.
    My biggest complaint about the tablets is that they’ll go through periods of needing to be restarted several times in a day. Other days, it’s happy.
     
    Bud A. and O.Henry Thank this.

    It has a chemical like smell. I used to drive around with kilos of it in my trunk. Stink the whole car up.

    My tablet decided it was going to show me MPG in the Summary tab.
    Now I can’t play messages while driving.
    Anyone know how to switch it back?

    Those 4 drivers should have also had their CDL's pulled as well, (permanently - or at least for a good number of years). Drinking of alcoholic beverages & driving do NOT mix in any shape, manner, or form whatsoever, regardless of any type of motor vehicle involved.

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead.

    Over the mountains, through the woods, into the valleys, coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - truck drivers can and do go anywhere and everywhere, every day, every night, all year round.
