    Just got off the phone with Keturah and everything is good to go. I will be at Crowder on the 26th of September. I did not expect any issues but without knowing for sure I was still a little nervous. Now all I need to do is to work on the honey-do list and somehow not driving myself and wife crazy waiting for the day.

    Allright....finally got a few minutes to update:yes2557:. So far training is going well and they have kept us moving. After our first delivery in Baltimore we went and picked up a load in Odenton MD for delivery to Spartenburg SC. From there headed to Anderson SC for delivery to MT Vernon TX. will take load tonight for delivery in Bryan in the morning.

    Is it everything I thought it would be? I'd have to say yes and definetly then some. The hardest part is the backing and parking:biggrin_2554: I'm getting better but its obvious I'm still a rookie . You just have to suck it up and if anyone gives u crap just blow it off, just remember its your ### on the line so if takes me ten pull ups:biggrin_25523:it takes me ten pull ups.:biggrin_25522:

    Pray you get a good trainer, so far all I can say is I can't comment yet until the training is done. And let me tell u I have some good stories but they will have to wait. Just be prepared to share your life with a complete stranger for three weeks and hope he likes to shower:biggrin_25521:.

    You guys on here seem to be as stoked as I was so you will problably enjoy it as much as I am. Ive been in touch with all but one of my classmates and they seem to be doing ok too. So far Conway has kept they're end of the deal so I'm still impressed with the company and of course my trainers T660:yes2557: will post some more when I can, later!

    Well day 1 and 2 at conway orientation/bootcamp done and out of the way. It's a little nerve racking but not to bad. Also met truckernurse here at Con-way and is going through bootcamp with me. I wont go into details as vmaggs did a great job at describing bootcamp already.
