How has the first month of training been? Since you started January 21st... Hehehehee
But seriously, Good luck. Is drivers solutions a trucking company or strictly training?
I was to graduate a four week school last friday, but we had two snow days here in chicago. So monday is our last official day. But we can stay at the school until the state examiner arrives. Actually until we pass the state test, which will be the first time I am sure!

Now I have to change my post. Cause it looks like I can't read, unless they read the small print reason for editing.

I forgot the "always quote the original post" rule of forums... hehehe

Well, with his comment about having messed up the date and mine about being able to fix it, it will be a bit obvious! And even more so now that we are talking about it here!

hmmmm advice.......
Take every bit of practice time you can, whether it be backing on the yard or road time, trust me it'll pay off later.
Once you learn to back into the hole they make for you doing it over and over and over may seem boreing (this is where most newbies make there first mistake) DONT STOP PRACTICEING keep doing it until you understand why and how it all works, because every hole you back into will be differant and everytime you set up for a back...no matter how hard you try you will setup a little differant everytime.
and last, Have fun and try to relax, it might seem like allot to take in, in a short period of time and really hard to do...but once you wrap your head around it, it'll become secound nature...
Good Luck!
