Orientation was completed just before lunch today. Arrangements were made for me to meet one of the city drivers, who only stay local, and ride along with him tomorrow to complete my training. When I arrived home there was a message to call Rick in dispatch. When I called he asked if I would mind if they changed the plan a little. Instead of staying local I have been given a truck and will take an empty tank to Kankanee, Illinois and swap that for a loaded one and back to Winnipeg. They don't know if I will be keeping that truck but for now I am in truck #155. I will be running with another driver for as long as it takes for me to be comfortable.

Any idea why the North Amercan's like such long tanks? They seem to be so long and skinny. What are you hauling by the way, is it food stuffs. Or is it something that you need an ADR for, Dangerous goods licence whatever they call it?
