They're looking for 'abuse' type drugs & alcohol really. Bring your script bottles with you, but you probaly wont need them. Medical holds ARE NOT the worst thing. Once hired, you can file a grievance & can usually get your seniority restored to where you would have been on the senioity roster had you not been put on hold.

I'm sure you/he meant metatarsal guard/protection..

I'm a bit torn on the RTO shoes. I'd love 2 free pair of good boots, but I didn't pick them up, because once I sign for them, I'd have to wear them. I wear timb pro or wolverine work boots 99.9% of the time, with an additional insulated pair for winter. All the RTO issued boots are insulated. I will not wear insulated boots during the summer.. Secondly, according to Dept of Labor, std work boots aren't required to be employer supplied, only specialty footwear (Metatarsal or Fire protection) is. So that would make it a contract issue. Boots are mentioned in the MOW departmental sections already, and missing from the RTO section. Until it is addressed in the RTO departmentals of the contract, I will stick to my work boots..

From what I've read, the human eye detects all whites as just white, while the film/sensors in the cams detect different 'tones' of white. Depending on the light source emitting the light, it will effect what color cast appears in your pics. Read up on your cams 'White Balance Feature'. In Picassa3, (Freeware) under tuning, the neutral color feature can be used to correct off whites in your pics. Simply select the tool, then click on what was truly white when the pic was snapped. It applies that tone to the whole pic, eliminating blue cast or other strange colors.. Result can vary.. I've read GIMP is a very powerful freeware like Photoshop, but haven't used it.
