Its 367 miles of pure boredom from state line to state line....

Well, still in the program. I am back at the terminal getting ready for the testing this week. Over a period of 5 weeks out I got to practice backing twice. Hit a pretty low point last night and this morning but got some practice in thanks to the generosity of another coach who was there. I got to do some practice and nailed the 90 and the offset several times as we worked through the afternoon. Tomorrow is more of the same as well as Wednesday with the test looming on Thursday. Very nervous but giving it my all to try to catch up to where I should have already been.

I'll keep you all posted but it's been a very difficult road for me and have had alot to overcome during this time. I'm determined to make this happen and am just taking the moves slow and easy to get through them.

Thank you all for reading and encouraging me. I really appreciate it!

The only advice I wan to give you is to use the VOICE you have.... It seemed you have given this trainer a chance and it hasn't worked out like you planned Don't let this guy ruin your career. Good luck and keep us posted......

I'm not going to look it up now, but I believe that Pee Test is the only test accepted by the FMCSA, so far. Do a TT search.

That is correct however some trucking companies have their own policies

I'm going to be taking my DOT physical Monday and I currently take 2 prescriptions. 1) Wellbutrin for mild depression and 2) hentermineP for appetite suppression. I have an appointment with my doctor who prescribes these meds and was wondering if there's a form out there I can print to take with me so he can state taking these meds won't interfere with my ability to operate a CMV. Does anyone know where I can find this form (if it exists)? If not, can someone tell me exactly what the doctor should write?

For the meds you need a doctors release that States I am prescribing this med for mild depression and appetite suppression. it has no limitations for him to operate a commercial motor vehicle.

"You cant't HANDLE the truth!

You want me on that truck, you need me on that truck. I drive the goods so you pathetic shoppers can eat and drink beer over the holidays while I'm freezing in the cold fighting the winds and snows of WY. Instead of whining that my truck is slow, or I caused your accident, a simple THANK YOU would do. Cause I'd rather not have you question the manner in which I provide....

Oh wait... That movie was about Marines. My bad.

THANK YOU LOVE MY BEER!!!!!

Can Anyone help me out?

With what? That is a broad question

Looking forward to your post Good Luck!!!!

I've yet to see where it costs a quarter to use a cart. Bring the cart back and get ur quarter back. Maybe they had too many complaints and discontinued it.

That is at ALDI food stores so they can keep cost down they are a cheap alternative to the regular grocery store. Good prices on some name brands and then they have there own brand

Yo Teach hows it going

Still in training and working towards my CDL - I won't lie, it has not been what I had hoped but I do love the job and focusing on getting through it - in short, training is a nightmare. I did contemplate leaving but am doing my best to get through it.

Just stick with it if you can handle entitled children you can handle this.......
