In Springfield At Prime Inc
Topic 21668 | Page 4
That’s awesome Papa Bear. Back when I first started Daniel was going through Arkansas and we met at the Petro in Little Rock. We ate and he took me out to his truck and went through the pretrip with me. I was on my way to school. He took his time to help me out. I found when I got to school I actually retained alot from that short encounter. If memory serves me right it was shortly after that he wrote it all up on here. He is an amazing young man.
Guess what? i did the same with the pretrip and testing others. trainers usually watch and my PSD trainer walked past every guy there....even an Airforce mechanic....and picked this Jersey girl. he had me stand outside the truck with my eyes closed.and said "now do the incab inspection"... without looking at anything as a reminder. when i did it all.perfectly, he was like...yup, you're my student now lol.
My trainer was having some troubles getting her, I don’t know the details. But he asked me if I would have time for dinner tonight before we leave to Michigan tomorrow. I told him no problem because all I’m doing is studying pre Trip. His message can back immediately saying, that’s sounds like a sign of a good student I am blessed. Lol I hope I can keep up the good picture he’s forming of me without even knowing me.
