Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

Does anybody know what goes on in 3 days of orientation at Central refrigerated?

 

miss you too roomie

how's school going? how surprised was the new student from sacramento? lol

training is going really well so far....have experienced alot in just 3 days and look forward to the next 25ish.

 

Bill (walter) is a great guy and has taught me lots so far in just the 1st 3 days. drove 513 yesterday and 387 today...experienced my first snow storms as well as the 8 mile backup one caused near dayton, oh....loving it so far

 

,I passed my COLA and PTI!! Woo Hoo!! Second day out on the road - and there was 'some' improvement today (I think/hope) and that is what they are looking for. The person from Sac - well lets just say he's here - and I'm playing nice... I want him to be working - and I think you know why. I just hope the trainer I get is as good as I've heard Bill is!! Stay safe and have fun!!

PS - I got a new roomie - came in last night at midnight - she is done w/her trainer (her second one) and is awaiting upgrade. She started off at SLC. Klingon is now headed for SLC and when he called his DM they didn't know he was near time to upgrade, so nothing was planned for that... so don't know when THAT will happen. Not sure if it's his trainer that is to 'notify' them, or they are suppose to keep track of it.

 

Congrats. You will be ok with driving just remember to breath and watch your mirrors I know the shifting can be difficult sometimes but it will come with time.

The trainer should not have to notify training when Klingon is ready to upgrade. They should have already been ready for him. Mine got pushed back because My trainer didn't think I was ready.

I'm in SLC now I picked up my load to go home at Hershey and well the tandems were stuck. I couldn't slide them so When I came here to fuel they red tagged the trailer. I'm waiting for it to be fixed so I can get a move on. I want to go home so bad.

 

COLA,PTI ?

 

Well Klingon is in Vale, OR heading your way - who knows you guys might meet up

 

COLA=air break test (cut out/cut in/low air alarm/applied pressure)
PTI=pre trip inspection

 

Kansas I-70 west is ugly, guess the DOT took the night off! Got an early drop of in Denver,yay!

 

were the pins locked or just wont slide?
