    Soon2b I'm scheduled to ### 2 orientation at Watkins and Shepard at the hickory terminal on my 21st birthday (November). I should ask sandy about this 2, but after the 10 days and I don't feel like I'm ready to go out by myself can I go out with another driver for awhile (assuming they think my skills are up to par and they offer me a job)

    show- ull be going to conover, not hickory! :yes2557:
    i dont no how to answer that question to be honest, that would be a question to ask sandy, i think if u dont feel ready u might be able to stay? i really have no clue, but a heads up tho, if the trainer does not think you are ready, they will send you home, so i guess the quesion is answerd, but im sure youll feel good about going out alone, ull be dealing with a great trainer in conover!, i no him personly and think youll be in great shape!.

    Well, after making it thru 80% of the 165 pages here...I decided that instead of going to school here in CA, I would try to go the WS route, in winter even!! I want to thank all the posters here that have been so informative on the school and actually being employed by them afterwards.

    I just accepted a voluntary severance package from my current job and need to do something... I've heard so much good about the school there in Montana that I can't wait to start. Just earlier this evening I submitted an online app, so I have my fingers crossed that they are still hiring. I live somewhere between 20 and 30 miles from the Santa Fe Springs terminal, so I know I meet that requirement.
    Wish me luck....

    Thanks again to all the WS people and non WS people that have been so much encouragement the last day I've spent going thru this massive thread.
