    Yeah....But the same nasty driver that's too lazy/stupid to clean him/her self, Then add a dog or whatever their beast of choice is and then you've really got a mess!

    Pets have no business in trucks...If you can't handle life on the road without them, You're in the wrong business!

    Disagree there. Dogs have been riding with driver for a long time. Problem is irresponsible pet owners.

    And a dog will have a lot more intelligent things to say than what you'll hear on those talk radio shows :biggrin_2559:

    Hmmm.. I dunno.. I have my dog.. I sweep daily and she isn't a real mess.. I would rather clean up her smell.. Than some of the drivers I've smelled standing in line at ts.. What's worse? My clean dog or a nasty driver that just tarped in 95+ weather getting in his just.. Just to sit in a cloth seat that absorbs his smell and sweat?

    hey, I've been through Cleveland! Just through, though, when we go to Statesville.

    You driving? If so, who for?

    Yes and those of us who don't smoke just love getting moved to an ashtray. I mean truck after a smoker was in it. I've been in this 1 for about 3 weeks now. I have used coffee grounds, ALOT of febreeze, and scrubbed everything down yet I still SMELL smoker. Cookies hair on the other hand is cleaned up 2-3x daily, and I wasn't charged by the company for a cleaning fee after my last truck since it was clean already. This includes at least 1x a month taking the dash apart and cleaning any hair that has got in there.

    Wow Mark, sounds like a tough gig!

    I've been approved for Swift flatbed (I know, that's not a guarantee), and am supposedly waiting for a orientation date at Greer SC. But, I've been putting in aps yesterday and today to any flatbed company I can find that has a terminal in the greater area. I'm sure most, if not all, will say not enough recent experience (if they reply at all) but won't know if I don't try.
