May Orientation

Headed to May orientation in Phoenix on Sunday 6/30, and it is suppose to be HOT!!!!! out there. Been living in San Diego for to long...

 

Haha. Adapt & overcome, brother. You'll do just fine. Just keep your head in the game.
best of luck to you.

 

Thank you. This is a big career change for me, but I am looking forward to this.

 

you know theres a backing test on the first of orientation? and driving test, pre trip too

 

isnt that kinda standard with most companies?

 

Can the op maybe post how detailed the pretrip is? We sorta do one at school, but not everything under the hood everyday.
and the driving test. We just practice straight backing and // parking, just not 45°, that should be like half parallel parking, yes? no?
Thanks
Mary

 

I have straight backing, parallel, docking, and off set docking experience, but no 45. I will do the pre-trip the same as I did for DMV, as well as the air brakes test. Just remember (G)et (O)ut (A)nd (L)ook.

 

However, I am not a smoker... is that ok?

 

No, one of May Trucking's qualifications is that you have to smoke at least three packs a day.

 

Guess I can't apply to May then, I quit smoking 3 years ago...
heeeheee
