    Why wouldn't walmart just have us pull their trailers if they needed loads moved so bad? Then they can run empty back and get paid.

    APU problems? Mine is having starter problems. Told it's a overheating sensor that might be bad.

    You show up late to orientation and they notice. You think it's a given, but a few did that last week and didn't make it past day two. First day a few minutes late because youre looking for right hotel is one thing, but two hrs late on day two marks you as a send home. Be honest with paperwork and experience and they'll work with you.

    Be ready for physical day one. No caffeine, high intake of salt or sugar day before. No ibuprofen 24 hrs prior or you can get flagged with blood trace in urine because ibuprofen does that. Best to eat cheering or something morning of. Also, if you smoke, fight temptation and don't smoke while waiting for physical or one hr before. It elevates blood pressure and heartbeat. I treat it like a life insurance exam and I pass every time. Keeps my stress and nervousness down. Less flags the better.

    If you can't eat pizza or pasta, tell recruiter now. Those are your lunches. Take money for dinner if staying at hotel. I ate at home since I live 45 min away.

    Good luck to you.

    In jax delivering.... APU took a dump again. Asking for a diff truck later today. Don't really care what it is. I'm done messing with this truck. Costing me way to much down time. I have a whopping 605 miles this week.....
