Ah okay, thought it was along the lines of labourer. I worked for the highway maintenance companies and the only way I could stay on for the winter was I get my class 3 and drive a plow/sanding truck. I said no way. The accident stories I heard scared me. Now, a city sanding truck is different.... smaller too.

Now, I can say I didn't drive a tandem before (legally that is). Shifting takes a little while to get used to... but focus more on being aware of your surroundings and actual driving skills. The guys I worked with were still grinding gears after 20 years, but what get's you hired are the skills/lack of accidents.
