<p>[QUOTE=&quot;snowlauncher, post: 12011455, member: 140508&quot;]I work out of a 28 door facility in Idaho, about 15 trucks, and most automatics. They have been phasing out manual trans trucks for awhile, so just a few higher mileage trucks waiting to retire left in the fleet...</p><p>Driving a manual trans is just like learning to ride a bike, once you learn you never forget. You may be a little rusty to start, but I doubt you&#039;ll crash and burn on your road test just for that.</p><p>As for your job duties, you will be an extra board, low seniority DSR for awhile. This means you will have to work whatever shift they assign you from day to day. You will be on the dock at times, other times you will be running deliveries,&nbsp; or doing linehaul runs...</p><p>It will be a little tough paying your dues as the low man on the totem pole for an indefinite amount of time, but if you stick it out and get a decent bid,&nbsp; in the future you could be doing a cushy day shift meet &amp; turn, running Monday thru Friday and making a good living.</p><p>Hang in and see what comes along, that&#039;s my advice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
