    Who cares? Decker is just another junk OTR company. Shorted on miles and low on pay. On duty time with no pay. Expensive benefits. Away from home for weeks at a time. Among all the other BS, they constantly advertise for drivers. Wake up people!

    Well if you have a bunch of Mexican Mafia or Aryan Brotherhood tats then you got prison type tats.

    If they have good color and are non violent/racial then you don't.

    Usually, all black ink. No "AB" tattoos, 3-leaf clover, etc. should be visible during a job interview. Most people won't know what they're looking at, but you never know.

    Like that goofy guy that's been in the news, the women are fawning over, with the tear drop, fully blackened in, tattoo under the eye. He's a walking advertisement. At least get something like that covered. Some tattoo shops now have laser to remove them.

    I'm glad she answered about the bus ride, now it makes more sense.


    Guessing again, but I think the people wanted her gone, and knew the bus schedule, so they made it short and sweet for her to leave and not having her stranded. A bit of blackmail, and if she was expecting to drive for them, she had some belongings with her.

    I've rented cars one way before, if you are taking them back to the origin, the rate is decent, but one ways to be left away from home tend to be expensive. She was caught without a job and the way home was take it or leave it, and she didn't have time to consider.

    I hope she has better luck in the future.
