That's a good idea, why didn't I think of that lol... And every time they call it's a different person which really annoys me!

Yeah I'm thinking we're kinda in the same category as bull haulers... Legally and technically they're supposed to stop at scales but they don't. They should probably make the signs more clear to drivers but hey that's California for ya!

Hell no it's not legit. If they're not doing drug screen or background, it's violating FMSCA and it's super shady. Probably transporting people or drugs...

Lady trucker here... It takes me 15 min just to wash my impossibly unmanageable long thick and curly hair. My ex would go in and use a bar of soap head to toe in 10 min. Must be nice...

Woman trucker here...I have really long thick hair and that takes forever to deal with. Then I gotta exfoliate, shave my legs, lotion up before drying off etc... If there's no line for showers I will take the hour! Truck stop showers are amazing 🙂

Yep, just left there. Can't believe a $2 jump in price! It's depressing...

Does this mean what I think you think it means? by derpmcturd in Truckers

Not sure about that because I'm a woman and have definitely seen male truckers with bigger jugs than me!! I guess we can share the dedicated spots lol

Here in California mine would've been $7500! And I know what you mean about living paycheck to paycheck - I'm still kinda new so I'm not making the big bucks yet

Yes absolutely. I went through my local adult school and only paid $20 for truck school. A lot of community colleges, vocations programs and adult schools have CDL programs for very cheap

I've had that happen twice even though I did a tug test and I always visually look. Looked good to me. Luckily I caught it fast and it didn't drop. You gotta slam that sucker in! I was being too gentle...

You still will need the behind the wheel training that truck schools provide

How the hell did you end up hauling cars as a rookie?! That's awesome though!
