Profile For Kim H.

I'm still new to trucking-after upgrading, I've been solo for about 7 mos. One of the things I'm struggling with the most is trip planning and I think its affecting my performance. Is there any advice on how to be better at this or any resources that I can be pointed in the direction of? And before anybody asks "why didn't your trainer show you how to trip plan?" Its a long story and not something I want to talk about. But if anybody has advice it would really be appreciated..

I'm out on the pad testing out (hopefully) to go into TNT training...I think Kim T and myself have probably passed each other like ships in the night. I kept hearing your name being called during orientation- I was looking around like "where, where?" but we had so many people in orientation I couldn't pick you out.. Myself & three other cdl holders have been in the 7 day night classes. Basically they told us this is our job interview for prime because we already have our cdls. For our pre trip we only have to know engine and in cab. We do the straight back, one of the offsets and a choice of parallel, alley dock, etc. Then the road test.. Wish me luck...I might need it..

Robert, it’s going pretty well. I got a text from a possible trainer earlier and I will be meeting her tonight. There really hasn’t been a lot to report, pre-trip inspections, a little backing, class time. I will be sure to let everyone know if it goes well with the trainer tonight.

Tell your friend’s daughter to go for it. Also tell her come to TruckingTruth and read everything she can. This site and the people have really helped me a lot. Good luck to her!

Donna is out with her tnt trainer and probably doesn’t have a lot of time to post. Stephanie is doing great, excelling. I haven’t talked to the other Kim, she came in with her CDL so she’s on different schedules.

We will all get there. 😁

Have a great evening!

I’m at the Campus Inn and guess who I’m sitting here talking to...Donna!!!

Still stuck at Memphis..2nd guessing all this...was prepared and had enough money for 1 day of travel not quite 2😕

Donna, I’m getting in late Saturday night and will have all day Sunday free. Getting on the bus at 10:30 this evening. I have all my paperwork, my bus ticket, clothes are in the dryer and then will be ready for the duffle bag, I have my sleeping bag, meds (prescription and non), toiletries, chargers, boots and tennis shoes, ummm I think that’s everything. I’ve made a list, checked it 10-15 times, checked the list on here 15-20 times but I know I will forget something. lol

I will nice to finally meet you. 😁

Will you be going out with a trainer on Thursday?

I'm on the bus headed there now- I'll be there a day or so after you!😀 Is it normal to be this nervous? Because I am😯
