    Can you say PIG!
    Is the inside of your truck crammed with pop bottles and candy wrappers.
    There is no valid reason why you cant shower at least every couple of days. I don't care who you are, if you really cared about yourself, your personal hygene would be at the top of the list of things to do daily, every other day.
    No wonder the public looks down on us. drivers like you.

    Those reward cards don't work when you have to fuel at Ryder shops. I am reimbursed through my company so no sweat. But the TAs have been $12 for about 2 years now. Only thing is my union contract says the company will pay $10 so we are going to have to get that amended.

    Nope. Longest I ever went without a shower was 2.5 days. And that was because I was stuck in upper Montana where there were no showers available. I hate being all nasty and gritty like that!
