the thing is theres not enough room to get a truck in the wendys parking lot so you have to park across the street at the conley country club which they dont like you doing they only want paying customers who frequent the bar parking there. but hey who really cares your in and out of the wendys before any one knows your there.

I have always been told parking at the southern comfort bar in conley is off limits because of past problems with drivers going there then again this is by drivers but I wouldn't doubt it I know the company is against the use of alcohol by drivers while not on hometime especially the students. I know the bar in the lobby of the hotel used by central in west valley is also off limits and they tell you in fontana the same tif bars by the hotel they use there are also off limit these two I have been informed az management and also the hotel employees. The reality is is that there are irresponsible people here in the world and to make it safe for everyone they probably have had problems in the past and to keep from further problems they enforce these rules I don't blame them.
On a lighter note how is everyone? -

Thanks for the welcome friend!
I am currently a lease operator and I train here at central getting into my third year and enjoying it for the most part getting a lot more hometime so its much easier. How about yourself? -
Hey Skully any words of encouragement for a newbie starting August 22. Or any advice, I've been waiting since middle school for this opportunity and almost made the mistake of joining CRST.
SKULLY_TRUCK Thanks this. -
As for being out on your own enjoy the traveling enjoy meeting new people it is for sure an adventure. Same thing here don't get discouraged miles go up and down on a regular basis be punctual and communicate with your dispatcher on a regular basis if your getting short loads constantly make sure you add them up you may find its more miles than it looks before you call and ask if there is a reason because that's the first thing they will do. Make sure your dispatcher communicates with you if not talk with the terminal manager and express your concerns and continue up the ladder if nothing is done. Be cautious at all times never get too comfortable that's when bad things happen........
Last but not least don't let the figures fool you leasing a truck is not all its cracked up to be unless you enjoy staying out months at a time you really don't make that much more unless you train both of these should be avoided until at least 1 year of experience and that's only if you can honestly say these following things (I feel comfortable with my driving abilities, I feel comfortable with my dispatch and the miles I'm getting which solo should be no less than 2800 a week unless breakdown or hometime, and I like my job)
Those are the main things so hope that helps anymore questions just ask.
Glad to have you here rather than with Crash Roll Stunt Teamkryptonite and Lady K Thank this. -
Thanks Skully ima reread this right before I start training so I can clear my head and be focused. I'm definitely not comfortable leasing a truck when I got some other minor bills to pay first. I'm am also looking forward to bein there at least a year and know there's ups and downs. I have great communication skills and good phone etiquette too. I also ask lots of questions. I've been doing my own studying over the last years also. Once took some cdl practice tests while going to trade school for Hvac and was passing them with scores in the high 70 percentile. However I'm not ####y but confident that ill succeed. Ill definitely stay in touch with you and thank you very much.
SKULLY_TRUCK Thanks this. -
Ok its official, start school in Sacramento on Monday....
SKULLY_TRUCK and Lady K Thank this.
