    I recommend every one (rookies and veterans) to wear orange reflective vests at ALL times while walking to or from the building or doing a pretrip at the truck stop at night. Make the speed bumps big enough where their #### will go flying in the floor. Then they'll remember that the next time they pull in a truck stop, they won't wanna pick it up so they'll slow down!

    Saw 2 co-drivers peeing beside their truck at the fuel island in the middle of the day with the front door of the pilot 20 feet away.

    I used to call the company they are driving for and letting them know what slobs their drivers are. Now if I see it, I yell and point them out, even blowing the horn. I don't care. You can only deal with so. Much.

    I don't have that much courage. I'm not a big enough guy to instill fear in people. And I only have a tire-knocker; I haven't upgraded to a sidearm.
