I just completed the school and am now out with my trainer. Is you just listen to what the instructors tell you and ask questions if you are not sure you will pass the class. Now if you come I. Late every day make a dozen bathroom trips and forget to disclose everything in your past you will not make it. Also if you have been doing any drugs it would be best to wait a few months for your system to clean out before trying, you can not fool the drug test.
So in short if you apply yourself and pay attention you will be fine. The instructors will work with you and help you out.
Good luck to both of you. Hope to see you on the road some day.

Yahoo! Don't think I got lost or forgot y'all. I hunkered dwn the last 2 wks & dedicated myself to TDA. Took it day to day. Asked questions , avoided the neg students, read, pased all tests first time w/high scores!! This is an intense school & rewarding for those who apply themselves. Lazy smart #####* don't waste your time or the instructors. Started w 20. 10 in trip planning. Aced the tight maneuver rodeo. My thx to everyone here & from CRS. Professional & courteous. Pleased w my choice. Only phase 1. Next trainer OTR. THAT'S my focus now. Apply & learn. Too many look to far ahead like they have passed & employed. This is an on going interview until you have been assigned your truck. Dress & act accordingly. It helps. Orientation this wk then assigned trainer. And so it goes.Corsair4me and unloader Thank this. -
I was in the same situation as you. Except mine was 18 an hour, all the benefits I could want. Bonuses every month. But I wanted a change, I was tired of factory. Im in week 2 right now, so far, I have no regrets, Im listening, which means learning. and loving every minute of it. You just gotta decide whether or not to make the leap, I took a month to make my decision, and regret nothing.
