can't do that nowadays down here. i've seen many kingpin locks cut off with an oxy acetylene torch, and the driver who put on the kingpin lock written up.

Another way you could get away with it was by sticking a generic seal on the back and keep phony paperwork around to throw off any venom.

Didn't really have to do it much myself anyway, I just kept the truck parked and rode my bicycle everywhere.

As far as checking different terminals, I'll just wait it out a little while longer.

At least stick to working this security job for now and get this college algebra passed with a C.
I spent $140 on the book-set and want to know that I got my moneys worth out of it.

There is a site out there that you can buy used collage books for cheap, don't remember the name of it though.

Only other problems with used textbooks is that they switch editions and the schools go with it every 1-3 years.
As if education's already a PITA as it is, you're SOL if you happen to be terrible at a particular subject and have to repeat until you get that minimum passing grade.
