Profile For Matt

Thanks everyone. I have been vary lucky to have experienced drivers give me feedback and advice that i continue to learn from on a daily basis

I hope so. Honestly the general public is my main stress load it seems. "Kid stay there" " car get off your phone" " flashers are there for a reason "

Its been along time since i signed in. I felt like i had worn out my welcome with hopes that were never happening. Well since my last login i went from being a diesel technician to getting my cdl and driving for a few months than life happened again and now im spotting trailers and doing shuttle driving. I have learned alot and still have a ton to learn but one thing i found that im not sure if can be taught is dealing with the stress of driving. Well thats just my hello again im intrested to see what all has went on since i was here last.

Im glad i read this it was much needed.

Ok i should re phrase that. they seem great idk yet they talked a pretty good gig so we will see. And as far as the training i know i will be with one for a few months im not sure if they are able to give me a certificate. However with my current family situation i will be willing to take a local job and have to take a 160 certificate course if i go over the road later on.

Well after alot of years im not sure even how many i have been on here without looking. I can finally say i am now starting my driving career. Found a great local company willing to hire and train me.Put in my two weeks today!Excited and Nervous is about all i can think about.

Really?! ,I always thought it was stay in the right lane also good to know... and another question for the subject two right turn lanes no signs indicating no turn on red. Can both lanes turn on red?

Ok thanks for the reply! And I know it's just my opinion but I don't think it's right for them to ask and they put the little star beside it so you have to answer it. But I will stick something in there hopefully it won't be to outta wack!

Here is my question. What is the best way to fill out an application? Things like °why did you leave °date to and from ( I honestly dont remember most of them) ° starting and ending salary ( I don't want this to affect my chances of being hired) °last three companies ( do I include 2nd jobs or short term employment in other fields? ) I'm just trying to figure out the most professional and non judgemental way of filling these out any input would be much appreciated thanks!

So how long should you take trip planing? Obviously time will differ but what is realistic?
