    Congrats !! Been a Transportation Relocation Engineer [aka truck driver] for over 37 years, take your time and learn everything you can about this screwed up industry, it’s not for everyone. Remember it’s winter, so slow down and take it easy, there’s no load worth risking your life or someone else’s , you are the captain of your ship, not your boss or anybody else, not comfortable driving in a storm, park it, it’s not worth it, and I’ve driven in a bunch of shit over the years. Take care and enjoy that ride.

    Film and tv safety supervisor/ medic/ water safety coordinator. Basically I help shows create a relatively safe stunt for competition reality shows, and work with stunt coordinators during filming of stunts on shows. From topside to underwater, tops of mountains, remote locations around the globe, I’ve been there and done that. My dream job.
