    Just finished day one of orientation - the longest most boring day ever. Drug test was first and some paperwork. then the rest of the morning was just waiting while those who needed physicals got that taken care of. After lunch it was movies time. Watched videos all afternoon on safety, etc, while the instructor road tested those who had to test. Loooooong day!

    Didn't have to do another physical today in orientation. The 2 of us who just finished Swift academy only had to do the drug test. Everyone else had to have physicals.

    ok I have one thing to ask. When you get hometime can you take the truck home and park it if you have a place for it.

    If you live farther than 30 miles from your terminal you take the truck home.

    Sounds like you guys have a different schedule than what we had in Millington. We didn't go to the range until the third day.
