Packing for training with a trainer?

Or you could start without even going with a trainer.

 

Ya! If you just explain it to the company they might let you go out without a trainer.

 

I'm done with this thread, not surr why OP even bothered asking the question he already knows everything there is to know about otr, probably will be immediately upgraded into own truck upon arrival at whatever blessed company is permitted his employment..... He is aware that drivers who run recaps have more time available daily, surely he knows often that time is spent on customers property in middle of nowhere, with no cab or uber service available. Bring all you think is "needed" to survive, hopefully it works out for you.

 

And with that we say... “The End”.

 

People here are just trying to emphasize the space limitations that you will be dealing with training g with another driver.

Personally I see nothing wrong with your choice wardrobe being sensitive to cold myself after spending so much time in the south.

But the water and the chickens and that other stuff.. dude, it’s just for a couple of weeks. Once you get your own truck you have all the water chickens and powdered dinner you want!

It’s mostly people just teasing you. Don’t take it personal. It’s all fun. That’s why we use forums and not just google. When I worked for an oil company those guys really let you have it... holy ####. You develope a thick skin real quick on those places.. or you say #### those guys and quit.

Noobs always get hazed. It’s not personal. It’s always been that way.

 

One guy at the oil job tipped over a bulldozer (those things tip over easily believe it or not) and from then on everyone called him dummy or ####### and not his name for like a full year. He didn’t take it personal. He knew he was accepted by them, it’s just how some guys show luv.

 

I live in Alaska and dont need a bacls whstever! Sounds pretty demanding to me. Take the minimum! Youll survive
