Profile For Old School

He's a fine looking dog.

We know you.

Some folks aren't allowed to do those things. Sorry Todd, you are on that list. You've earned your position, so don't even try to complain about it.

Hey brutha! How are ya?

It's great to hear from you. One of our other longtime members, "Turtle," is working for Walmart also.

It's always fun when one of our old friends just randomly shows up. I know it sounds silly, but a grin appeared on my face when I saw your name pop up on the forum.

Most motorhomes have a shower in them. What's up with yours?

Are you aware you can request a "team shower?" That gives you 2 shower rooms for the price of one. Each parent can take a child to their respective shower and everybody gets bathed by only using one shower credit.

When we live unconventionally we have to think outside the box. Surely you can come up with solutions for this. Why don't you have a card from the truck stop? You could be gathering your own shower credits as you get fuel for your mobile domicile.

I spent a year in my youth living in a tent in a wilderness area. I bathed three or four times each week in a nearby stream. There are a lot of creative ways to bathe. You need to look for workable/practical options. Don't get stuck in thinking the benevolence of truckers is the only way to handle this situation.

Congratulations Daniel!

I was never in a union, but I was licensed in Texas as a Master Electrician back when I was in the electrical sign business. Did you know that?

It will take years to get to the Master level, but there's money to be made in that trade. I hope you are good with math!

Hey Mark, you'd probably enjoy reading this conversation from our archives...

What did you do before becoming a truck driver?

Mark, you make some thought provoking comments at times. That's great in a forum like this. I want to engage in this conversation deeper. Unfortunately, I'm covered up with a demanding schedule.

Please, check back in here later. I'll find some time this weekend when I can respond more fully.

Congratulations Stevo!

I'm very happy for you.

PJ is right. Just apply and see where it goes. Companies bend their own rules all the time when it comes to recruiting and hiring. What really affects hiring is how badly they need to fill the position.
