    This guy is a great example of what's wrong with this country. Wants to do whatever he wants without suffering the consequences. Glad my parents taught me how to be a useful member of society...

    Wow.... So you admit you will smoke in the future, yet im supposed to believe it wont be while driving. Ya.... sure. Wait til your lost, in a major city, no clue how to get out, while loaded heavy... See how much will power we have then. You will most DEFINITELY want to kick back then. You said what you did before, while smoking. So what are you doin now? Anything usefull?

    Because that is going to make everything better? Come on man. The same can be said about people who drink or abuse prescription pills. I've read alot on here about people who are prescribed pain medication and take them while driving. Driving high is not only stupid and moronic but also a danger to yourself and people around you, Even I know that.

    Oh, and I'm still clean. Running my eBay store, volunteering at my sons school, and working with the local Animal Shelter. I'm enjoying my decision to quit, I'm feeling better than ever. I think more clearly and sleep better at night, not to mention my fridge has hardly taken a hit. I do miss how amazing food tasted though.

    There are Caribou in Montana. They are endangered but hey, that should be the last thing I need to be worried about since...

    Ho-Hum, Tell me about Reefers (not the kind You think I mean but the kind you pull) one recruiter said 34 cpm and another said 39 cpm. Is this pay difference based on the truck they issue or the difference between Reefers and skateboards???

    My understanding is 34 cpm base rate and 5 cpm bonus for lightweight truck. So a total of 39 if you take the lightweight.

    I don't care what kind of ILLEGAL substance you use...if you use or have been using, than you have no need to try to get your CDLs. This is what gets my goat about substance abusers who think that we should just turn a blind eye while they try to take jobs from law abiding, drug free people. I think every company in this country should drug test every new applicant and randomly test employees, not just trucking companies, all companies. Welfare recipients should also have to be drug tested to receive taxpayer financed benefits!!!! Soap box put away now.

    Been watching this for awhile, time to comment. Every other paragraph you are self justifying why smoking dope isn't a big deal. Well, it is, you have kids. Guess what, they are not stupid they know what you are doing. I quit 30 years ago. That's dedication

    Before a judge blocked it, they were testing welfare recipients in Florida, and guess what. Only 2% tested positive, the other 2% never bothered to take the test (4% total). It was costing the state more to test people than it was saving. Thinking that all welfare recipients are drug users is a fallacy. Thinking that drug testing welfare recipients will save money is a fallacy.
