It can be, but generally, it is worth it. You'd like the man. I was talking with him one day, and one of his drivers called, turns out the driver had gotten a cotton module stuck... Dispatcher grabbed his coat, and went out to get it unstuck. Succeeded too!

Nik, if you were anywhere close to here, my money says you'd be working with this man too. That's just how good this company is.

Let's back up a little.

What about all the billboards, TV commercials and magazine ads that said it was cool to smoke? Tom Selleck use to be the Marlboro Man.

What about high schools that had smoker lounges for the students?

What about cigarette vending machines in every establishment you went to?

What about every movie star smoking on TV showing it was the in thing?

You tend to forget you encouraged us to smoke and now that we are addicted, we are the low lifes of your new world. Who's brilliant now?

by "you", I am guessing you don't mean each idividual. It was "big tabacco" that was out to get you (the smoker) addicted. It was they who profited on your addiction. And don't forget also that it was your state who sued on your behalf in the big money grab of the 1990's.

Some day you may know what I am talking about with regard to the filth and stinch. Some day you may also know what a steak, a chocolate chip cookie, or a bowl of soup really taste like. That some day will be if you ever get off the drug.

Until then, quit screwing up every truck in the #### fleet!

You are not allowed to attack someone based on who they are, their gender, race, etc. Deb happens to be extremely knowledgeable in the trucking industry and has been by her husband through a lot of crap. People here have attacked your pompous toned posts. You have been called out for what you have said, not who or what you are.

If you work for a company that slip-seats drivers, find a different job. If not, request a truck that has not been smoked in. If you can't do that, good luck in the industry. You have to have a spine and stand up for yourself or you will get nowhere. Attacking a wife of a trucker with sexist, offensive and irrelevant comments does not show me you have a spine.

Now. Go on ahead and tell me I should be in the kitchen making frybread and green chili. I'm waiting...

wow, reading this as well as another recent thread about smoking makes me glad i am a smoker. Seems there's a lot of bitter non smokers out there who really need something to help them calm down and relax.

I'm driving an old Scarlet Swift truck. Now although I don't smoke anymore, I'm pretty sure someone probably smoked in this truck at some point. Funny thing is, I'm sitting in this truck as I type... Nope... Not ruined--not trashed--can't even tell someone ever smoked in here.

Hell, for all I know maybe they crapped in a Walmart bag and pissed on the carpet too. Nothing a little soap and water won't clean up. Stop whining and get to cleaning there sissy boy.

Looks like you might be safe if you hire on in the state of Ohio, but I don't know if they enforce that law. Intrastate? Probably. Interstate? Not as likely. Or you can relocate to Ontario, CA (that's Canada), they do have a ban on smoking in trucks. Good luck to you, eh?

I looked and looked and couldn't find any trucking company here in the states that advertises non-smoking......go figure? But I'm sure you can ask when you apply with them, and be sure to make your demands known at that time.

On another note: If your purpose was to genuinely seek employment with a company that prohibits smoking, you went about it the wrong way. I believe your intent was to incite others, in particular, smokers, but this is just my perception of your post. Had you gone about it in a different way, you might just have received a more positive outcome. Next time you might just want to omit the adjectives you used and replace them with more benign ones, ones that others won't readily take offense with.

Avoid things like:

It's all in the delivery.

Oops, got to go......my biscuits are done.......kind of like this thread.

Well I will admit that having been in a truck a time or two, listening to the CB and all, that I knew that this thread would be like throwing a cigarette into a fireworks stand. And you folks didn't disappoint!

This here internet thing is like having a CB that reachs around the whole wide world (WWW), much better than any large radio with booster and echo and fancy antennas (pointed forward of course) could.

Heck, I was bored and I can only read so much anti-C.R. England and anti-Swift before I want to pull my hair out.
