What did you do before becoming a truck driver?
I've been a farrier since 09 and have done some other part time stuff just to keep a consistent income. I love doing that but your body pays the price. I sure will miss being around all those horse (well most of them) I need to start making some real money though. In the farrier bizz it's feast or famine

Thanks to Amy and David. I guess I'll just take all of your advice and hope for the best. The worst they can do is kick me out. I don't think they can take away my birthday.

Thanks for the reply Errol. All of the above I guess. I didn't give much info for you to go on (sorry about that). I just got out of school in Feb. I learned on 9s and 13s but the last day they put me in a 10 that threw me for a loop. I can learn. I just hope the will give me a chance to do so.

I am starting orientation with Melton next week. I am very concerned that I will be kicked out after the drive test. I am not a super trucker but I do fine with everything but downshifting. It is my big weakness. How worried should I be?

Poor down shifter
I'll be cresting that hill soon too. But I don't like to talk about it. I still feel like thirty something most days. I hope Swift is treating you well David. I sure do see a lot of Swift trucks out there. I don't think you could drive on the interstate 5 minutes without seeing one.
