Orientation in the morning.

Alright good to know. Sounds like it will be rough but I can do a week for the training. I am finding it really tough to pack as I keep packing too much. I am trying to make it so that I bring one large duffle bag/luggage thing, one laptop bag and one rolled up sleeping bag.

 

Good item list there and I never considered to bring a coffe mug, which I will bring.

 

I still have not been contacted by a driver trainer. I am getting a bit worried. The recruiter said she has some emails out, it will happen. She said the company will start paying me now. I have these thoughts of they are giving priority to younger drivers, I don't know. I am doing what I can, sleeping, watching backing videos, hiking (lost 23 lbs in about 3 months). My medical showed an A1C of 10.6, but 2 weeks ago it was 8 and my doctor assures me it is mostly likely below 7 at this point if I stay on track (6'3" started at 247 now at 224, goal 195 lbs). To complicate things slightly, I have 2 foster dogs with my wife. One of the foster dogs has lymphoma and I have been taking him to chemo since Nov 2021 either weekly or biweekly. He is approaching the end, still has quality of life, but is prob within a few weeks maybe less of life left (he is only 5 years old). I won't likely be there for him when he passes but that is the nature of trucking I guess.

I really need to get on the road training, I hope this recruiter is not jerking me around.

 

I don't know the meaning of what you just said but haha.
