    question, hows FFE costumers at those grocery warehouse's, some on the east coast treat you like a criminal, that's the way it was when i was at transam 12 years ago, hoping FFE has a different customer base, stayed with drybox ever sense, thinking about going back to reefer, thanks

    yep, another question, RT-70 that's south of Pittsburgh,pa. would Pittsburgh be in the slow traffic lane or perhaps high traffic lane's, and would there loads be more than 7 or 800 miles per load

    Just concentrate on the Cascadia, and keep the windows cracked and your eyes on the road.

    WINDOWS CRACKED!!!! dude I need a hazmat suit.
    If I ever see someone out of the academy treat a truck like this driver did, I'm going to make you lick it clean at gunpoint.
     
    FREEZERGEEZER Thanks this.

    Thanks Spat and Gearup, I know what I can do, I just feel I have to convince the doctors (3 years of construction and maintenance get you to know your limits pretty well)...I understand about insurance liabilities and safety regs though. I did get an appointment with my Cardio Doc, and my recruiter is being helpful and working with me to schedule my DOT physical AFTER I get my heart checked out.

    My recruiter said that a couple of the guys from RKD's class that got washed out due to med reasons have been checked out by their home doctor and have been accepted back into training, so its not a total wash to get red-flagged! Also, studying this Texas CMV Handbook has me feeling like Im 15 again and memorizing for my drivers test :-D

    Spat, Ive always used Mean Green Concentrate and used it full strength to soak into nasty crap. Or my other favorite...ammonia+bleach, dont breath the odors and you will be okay! (It makes a variant of mustard gas), but will cut \straight through most grease or goo.
