    Add I more chain pulling back, and one more coil rack and I’d run it

    So seems y'all both have an answer to this..
    I don't have the 160hr CDL schooling either. Does that mean if I ever throw in the towel on my own outfit no one will hire me..?

    CDL in Sept. 2013, can produce paper logs, heck back as far as 2015. Man I need to clean out my file cabinet.. :oops:

    That’s kinda what I was wondering... we’ll see what happens. I can’t work now I’m just gonna see what shakes out. With these apps. If I go back it’ll be on my own anyways. I believe

    I really DON'T have an answer; just how it went down for me, back then. Company I was pulling 'phalt for... needed paper, for 'insurance' purposes. I just did what I was told. (On weekends.)

    Ok, gotcha. I've been curious myself on how this would play out if I ever have to go company for some reason or another..

    10-4. That's sort of how I figured it'd be. For insurance purposes.. :rolleyes:

    Had my CDL since '89 (showing my age.) Drove a 'refuse route even prior, that my dad left me. Went to 'haul' for ICG in Columbus around 93 and they sent me to school in Orlando, Florida to become a 'switch'man.

    So, Telecom it WAS for a few years; until I got RiF'd. Always kept current; longform and all.

    Some stupid regs in '03 ... said I needed that stupid piece of paper.. so I killed it on weekends. Had to.
