    I have no direct advise as the person doing your interview won't be our old boss. Just be you're self and try to answer the questions as best you can also explain to them you are looking for a place to call home, a place you can retire from. Also if they ask about working nights,weekends, and holidays for the foreseeable future you need to be OK with that. Best of luck to you.
     
    Miguel562 Thanks this.

    Anybody from the ARCO Seattle Terminal around? It's been ages. In fact it's been a long time since I've heard anything from there. It's a great terminal so if anyone knows I sure would like to know and thing. I've been around the company for many years and so has my Dad. In fact I had lunch with Bob Bunton once with him and my Father. I did hear that they got a better that the south. I came out of Vegas but was out on an injury/ Just did retire in 2012. It was a great company to bad the higher ups got greedy (MHO). PM me if you like.I

    Just make shure you slow down around corners as the font want you flying around about to roll over. If the take you over railroad tracks you better stop also.
    Other than that theirs nothing to it, I doubt they would have you do any crazy backing if it's a truck and trailer and not a semi.
