truck driver (liquid and pneumatic bulk, gravel, reefer and dry van)
technical type geek for the last 10 years. never made so much money, never hated a job more.

I would think that driving the reefer van would make pretty good money!

that would be fun too...imagine driving through the neighborhood with those little bells playing like an ice cream truck!

"OH BOY OH BOY!...QUICK,...Where's my wallet??? The reefer van's coming!! The reefer van's coming!!"
