Question about age and experience
Hello Jim.W, For job, we have to be patient in this case. Try in more companies and do not feel bad if there is no response from other side. Be strong and go for it until you find one.
And thanks Brett for sharing this information. it will help other truck drivers also who are demotivated due to some rejections. :)

What kind of books do you like to read? Most of the time it just depends on what kind of mood I am in. My favorite is paranormal fiction, paranormal romance. Currently I am into the House of night books. I do like the Gray books
I have a habit of getting into a book and cant put it down it over way to fast. I am also a speed readerI cant help that I tryed to slow down plenty of times it dont work. So what kinds of books do you like and what are you reading currently?
I love suspense novels or romantic and funny kind of novels. It totally depends on my mood what kind of novel i want to read in free time. I am a slow reader. So, in free time i read some pages and then get back to work. I always prefer those novels which keep my mind fresh.

Trying to pack light is hard to do for a woman. Uggg.. I have been through my stuff over and over and I cant reduce what I have already packed.
It is hard for a women to do light packing for long drive. Try to pack basic requirements like your clothes, panties and all,towel, take some medicines with you, some entertainment stuff. Don't pack unnecessary stuff which you can also get while you are on the road.

Some lessons learned and experiences gained...
So I walk up to the window and the receptionist says "So, are you going to yell at me too?" I say: "No Ma'am! I know it's not your fault, I'll be glad to get my load whenever I can. Just tell me where to go, and I'll be there" Receptionist looks up at me and says: "Thank You!".
Thanks for sharing your experience. And i really appreciate how you handled that situation. The way you talk and behave with your companion or whoever you have to work for or work with, represents how responsible and mature you're in relation with your profession. I really liked it. Thanks for sharing anyway.

Wet Kits are kits put into trucks or semi-trucks that have Power Take Off. Many different accessories are installed on trucks, like booms or cranes, and the kits’ hydraulic pump is activated by the truck's Power Take Off. The accessories need the hydraulic pump to operate.

Wet Kits (or wetline kits) are kits put into trucks or semi-trucks that have PTO (Power Take Off). Many different accessories are installed on trucks, like booms or cranes, and the kits’ hydraulic pump is activated by the truck's Power Take Off. The accessories need the hydraulic pump to operate.
There are different units in each wet kit. They consist of items such as the hydraulic hose and fittings, reservoirs or tanks, filters, control valves, pumps, and PTOs. Hydraulic fluid is sent through hoses and into cylinders once the PTO initiates the activity of the hydraulic pump. Once the hydraulic fluid gets into the cylinders, the PTO can raise the load or execute any of the other operations that you may desire. The discharged fluid is then returned to the reservoir and, continuing the closed cycle indefinitely, fluid is again sucked by the hydraulic pump.
