We misunderstood and thought you were here in wvc.

Our class started at 62 and now is down to 35. We are doing really well. We passed all the practice tests. We will study a little bit, just not looking forward to the extra $21 in the endorsement costs just to keep from having to pay extra testing costs when we go home.

Down south here we started with about 25 and are now down to 11 starting week 2. Lost around 9 on day 1, 1 on day 2, 2 on day 3, and maybe 1 or 2 tomorrow if they don't pass the pre-trip. The school goes on and the survivors get closer and work together more and more each day to get thru each of the "jumping thru flaming hoops stages".

U guys know u don't "have" to get the endorsments right?

Central doesn't require u to have them.

I got mine when I got my permit test and come to find out if I even haul HAZ for central they aren't going to pay me anymore like all the other companies would.
Oh wait forgot we were talking about central here

I got mine so if I ever decide to leave I have them so I can find a job that needs them.

I finally escaped henderson, thanks for a truck that broke down, so nice of him. I am heading to WVC, it was a "hot" load, but when I gave them my eta they rescheduled the appointment for the morning at 0700 so I decided to shut down in Little America for the night, get up will get there about 0500

Six pack, I think I saw your truck

I had a customer that kept his boat at the Marina off of Ben Holt Dr. Nice area over there. I spend a lot of time over at Cal Expo during boat show season and went with my friends to the Hooters there off of Arden.

Anyone know with the couple of terminals Central has, how much freight goes into and out of Phoenix area? Do you think it will be a issue when home time is needed, or is that a fairly neutral place to live?
Phoenix hasn't been a problem for me. They usually send me there with a load when I get home time. (Live near Bullhead City)

Hey 6pak,

When are you passing through Saint Mary's city? You must be picking up some frozen strawberries. Btw welcome back to the great Republic of Kalifornia. Give me holler when you get to the central coast. I will forward my phone number at a later time.
