My hubbie was killed by a drunk truck driver.I commend you for being alcohol free for 9 years.Having 3 DUI's,you should not have any driving job at all.If you have a bad day will the temptation be there to have a drink?Please get another occupation to where your actions won't jeopardize your life or anyone elses.

One of these topics should be pinned to the top of the forum..
"READ FIRST: Concerning DUI's, Vehicular Manslaughter, etc". Sometimes things change quickly in this industry. Not so long ago if you could walk you could get a job. Now you almost need some time behind the wheel to hire on with the better outfits. As far as new trainees go, they better have a CLEAN background. Perhaps we won't have to repeat ourselves as frequently (although I'm sure there'll still be the occasional smacked ass who completely ignores it, and posts a new topic anyhow). One of the reasons this board is doing so well ( number one is what I have heard BTW ) is that people come here with direct questions and they get DIRECT answers...... some are honest and heart felt, some very rough, but it will give the OP a good over-all view of what they are up for. :wink:

And they get legitimate discussions going in them, even if they've been repeated ad nauseum, like this thread right here.

I am happy for the owners as this is a business for them. Me.... I just try to do my part to keep it a place where people want to come and join in. Why do you think we made such a big jump? :?
