I like green tea! I lived in China long enough to pick up the habit.
As to Prime Leases... just pop over to www.truckersforum.net/forum/forums and bug Injun about Girly.
You and Pinkle aren't the only ones with a named truck :D Injun has her Girly and leases with Prime.

I thought of getting my PPL and buying a cheap microlight (Ultralight or Light Sport Aircraft to you yanks), forth hand B22 Bantams go for $6,000 and PPL is around $3,000.
It was a choice between that, a motorcycle + class 6 licence, or China and a TESOL certificate.
I ended up in China, but it was a close run thing.

Talk directly to my company of choice or no?
I think I've said it before :D If you don't ask, they can't say yes"
GO ASK! :D
What's the worst they can say? "No"? How is that different from not asking?

Truck of the future aims to drive itself
Costs $50,000 capital for parts and installation and $5,000 a year ongoings for updates and maintenance? Thats better than $5,000 capital in training and $50,000 a year ongoings for wages...
What company wouldn't get that? :P

But if you were Leasing, you would have to pay out of pocket... the smart leasers have a maintenance reserve, which acts like the companies self-insuring scheme... It's just a matter of who pays what in the end.

Logging Vacation Time in your logbook
All they care for here is "time since last 24 hour break"
So for today for instance the sections of the logbook would have "Date: 08/07/14 (DD/MM/YY, not MM/DD/YY)" "Date of last 24 hour break: 07/07/14" "Cumulative time: 0 hours"
That's it.

You're competing with Poles, Hungarians, Czechs, so wages are dropping in the west like Germany, France, UK in order to stay competitive. Generally local jobs pay more since they're usually local residents with local costs, while I hear cross border reight is mostly dominated now by the easteners with lower living costs and hence happier with lower wages.
With the EU now looking to include Ukraine there will be other changes still.

Bring on sex droids that can be heat sterilized between users! :P
