    Cool, one big concern figured out. I'm not sure why everyone on this site tries to push
    How was it as far as your age went?

    I've been told before that I wouldn't go far but I managed to be General Motors Master Tech for 18 years in a row out 28, They also told me I couldn't run a business but yet i did and sold it for a profit. I don't give up and I'm not weak minded. I just don't put up with crap and neither should anyone else.

    Not sure if the laws are the same over there however under work place relations i thought it was illegal to smoke in the work place and in this case it would be the cab of your truck.

    Does Britton Transport hire in Las Vegas? The van or reefer division? @SinCityShooter might like that company.

    I'll find out tomorrow. I do not believe they do. I'll let you know.

    I got an email back from our office. Yes, they will hire in Las Vegas, but it won't be optimal for drivers needing lots of home time.

    In the USA it's legal to smoke in the cab of your truck. The court has already ruled on that.

    Ya know what? I went down to SWTDT and talked to Doug. Seemed nice, but I forgot to ask him about the smoking. I'll give him a call tomorrow and ask.

    Never heard of a company that won't set you up with a non-smoker trainer. That question is asked frequently on this website.
