In case anyone was wondering about Tim, my previous trainee, I got a phone call from safety yesterday morning, he too got the heave ho. It's too bad he and George couldn't switch positions in life, George is a mature adult that wants to succeed, Tim was not.
I don't know what happened to him. I got a phone call from him when I was on my way back from California last weekend saying everything between he and his wife was all worked out and that he couldn't wait to get back on the truck. I had it set up with dispatch to get him a ride to the Wytheville yard with only one of about 25 trucks per day that go there to meet me and get on my truck, I called him numerous times since that phone call, no answer, no return phone calls no answering text messages and never once called into Abilene. When he didn't return safety's phone calls that was it. Good kid, just needs to become an adult. I just wish him well. so far I'm 0-3. David quit after 2 weeks solo, George, well we know what happened there, and now Tim pulls a vanishing act. Not a very good record on my part. Oh well, I still have my job.gntorres61, Lonesome, YardDart and 3 others Thank this. -
I really hate what happened to George. Its always the honest ones who make mistakes and get shafted and the sneaky ones continue to stay out here.The Challenger, gntorres61 and UTurn1 Thank this. -

There was a thread on here started by an ex commercial pilot who was seeking help in creating a checklist similar to what pilots use prior to a flight. Everything to check about the truck, paperwork, weather, etc. he gave up since most of the "help" was at best sarcastic. Something like that could be invaluable to a new trucker seems to me.

I know I couldn't train anyone. For one, I have too many bad habits, and I like being by myself in the truck.
JohnBoy Thanks this. -
That's part of the brain damage I need to assess. -

JB might beat you to a new Volvo. Ol Faithful here has started to develop a bit of a high rpm turbo screech. Its mild but its definitely bearing oriented. I clocked a company freightliner today on 95 in my personal car. 71mph exactly. Not fair. Im going to pout now.
The Challenger Thanks this.
