    Called it. Got canned for my ditch escapades.... they said there do me a solid and not trash my dac with preventable and list it as an incident during probation. So there's that I guesse.

    @Chinatown get in here and get me some job ideas man.
    7 months experience, clean MVR one non preventable (took it in the wagon in texas)
    Tomorrow I'm gunna go get a few endorsments. Think I'll pick up tanker coil and maybe double triples.
    Without having a job I want to avoid paying to 200 for hazmat. And before you ask I'm Up state new York near Rochester and want 48 plus Canada if I can get it

    Sorry to hear that!
    If there's any way you can afford to, I'd get the hazmat endorsement now. You never know where you may end up getting employed, that endorsement can potentially open up more doors.

    You'll be out of work for about 2 days, dude. There are lots of jobs out there waiting that don't give a bowel movement about something like that. I'd make a good resume, jump on the internet and start making contacts. I'd say "good luck" but you don't need it---it's a sellers market.

    Yea that's one reason I'm not really anything emotion wise. Just kinda numb. Still recovering from my last outing I guesse.

    True. Didn't think of that. It would be nice to say that I'm curently working on hazmat endorsment. I'll see what I can dig up around here and hopefully China will chime in with some sugestions. Also gotta get my enhanced license if I wanna run Canada. And I do.
