marf Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Bump because I got a goddam job finally. I subversively used a recruiter's number that my dad had and got him to talk to me, but now I'm going to Seattle for my orientation on the 15th, and training takes six weeks, so I get to live in Seattle for a month and a half. I'm really nervous, since I don't like big cities like I used to, and Seattle fucking terrifies me. why does Seattle terrify you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marf Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I always figured it would be impossible to eat healthy as a trucker, aside from it being scary driving something that huge, I think it might be fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneToThirtySix Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Thanks, abusivegeorge! why does Seattle terrify you? The rush traffic freaks me out a little, and I've been lost there more than once. I can usually find my way back, but getting where I need to be (in general, not just in Seattle) without getting lost is going to be a trick I may have to learn the hard way. I always figured it would be impossible to eat healthy as a trucker, aside from it being scary driving something that huge, I think it might be fun The biggest trick of the trade I've heard is to make your own food. My wife has a coworker whose husband drove for a few years, and he sold me a small plug-in fridge for cheap; it hooks up to the battery, and some truck companies have a space in the cab for that kind of thing, so I can keep sandwich meat and vegetables or whatever in there with me.

awesomeperson Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 James Stinson was a trucker, seems like a great job and at least you don't have to deal with your co-workers all day long on a cubicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneToThirtySix Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Well, I'm off in about seven hours to wait for an hour for the bus that is taking me to a terminal where I will call and wait for my hotel shuttle to pick me up and then sit in my hotel room until 6am tomorrow, when orientation begins. I hope I don't get a klepto for a roommate the one night I need to stay in a hotel. In short, I'll see you later, watmm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneToThirtySix Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 So my roommate turned out to be a forty-one year-old hippie type guy. He just about shit his pants when I showed up with a week of clothes; his recruiter said nothing about being on the road for six weeks. Now I've doubled the number of states I've been in my entire life in three days, and now I'm fucking stuck in Salt Lake City until after Christmas, owing to the training course mileage limits and the end of my hours of service for the first week. Almost punched a UPS employee for asking me where I was from and if I might make it home for Christmas. edit; Also, GPS devices aren't all set up for commercial drivers, I discovered. Some of the routes aren't designed to allow trucks that size through residential areas, among other issues (my trainer bought an $80 one, and there have been a few problems already with it). The professional driver version runs between $300 and $600, but they look cooler when they're bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
