    VAGASIL,it will help reduce those burning sensations,and need to lash out at men.
    Maybe have a wine cooler,watch some housewife shows?

    K&B on a dedicated account.
    It has been a very good place to work and pays well. Getting fired greatly improved my situation.

    If you read the rest of the company policy you probably would have found it clearly posted that you can't be under the influence of alcohol while on the property either. This is a fairly common policy with any trucking company and in my opinion is a no brainer.

    He wasn't under the influence of alcohol though. He was legally sober.

    What are you trying to say six? I should check out k & b? Or about getting fired and then moving up? No matter how much I piss and moan I would still recommend my company to anyone needing a second chance.
