    I didnt lie... I tarped it. Wasnt allowed to tarp there, so I had to go somewhere else to do it.

    Just a thought, but if you walk into the truckstop with clean pants everybody will think your pulling a dry van.

    Not if your gut doesn't block the view of your shoes!!

    I prefer to walk in anywhere and no one suspect what my job is. Chains stay on the trailer and not on my wallet. No trucker T-shirts, no 4 day dirty clothes and if your face looks like an armpit buy a razor.

    Tough to get the Chain Drive Wallet hooked up to those sweat pants you wear all the time. And the sandals. Just don't know what to say!:biggrin_25522:

    I don't know why the door slammers wear them but I prefer sweatpants because they're easier to remove. I have to be comfortable when I drive so pants are a no-no. My team driver doesn't care for it, but it's not about him!:biggrin_25522::biggrin_2559:

    You have to work smarter not harder flatbeding is about using your head. If you check online you can find a lot of used uniform outlets. I used to buy coveralls and long lab coats cheap sometimes for a buck or two a piece. Then you just have to make it a habit to put them on everytime you load/unload.

    I imagine if you don't have thel right cover gear you can ruin alot of clothes.Look at the bullhaulers,they all wear the right attire to load and unload cattle.
