    Well got checked in this morning at campus inn. Found out to my surprise that my orientation doesn't start till Tuesday morning. I'm still gonna get up early see if I can get somethings done or started tomorrow if they will let me. Never hurts to try and get a head start. Already here might as well move the ball forward.

    Are you working as a company driver? I read on that yellow packet that company drivers start Tuesday, but I'm being told to be at orientation on Monday. So I'll just go on Mondays orientation to play it safe.

    Well have to wait till tomorrow which is Tuesday for my orientation. But using time wisely by now being 3/4 done with cbt's. Then off to do more on making sure I can do pretrip ( doesn't seem hard just got to remember things ). Then a little down time for me.
     
    FullMetalJacket Thanks this.

    On about day three of orientation they will have a pre trip class.

    They really do a great job of breaking all of it down to simplify it.

    Abbreviations like
    PMS: properly mounted and secured
    CBB: (not) cracked vent or broken
    ABC: abrasions bulges or cuts.

    They'll give you so much good info it really makes the pre trip simple.
