Werner Orientation 1/4/10

Talked to my recruiter and I am set for January 4th. She wanted to get me in sooner. Christmas is coming, GF's birthday is New Years eve.

I may go to Oklahoma and visit my dad before I start too.

She told me I would be going to Atlanta and join the SE regional. Nice I guess. I wonder if that is just for my training period. Told me I would be home every six days.

I guess I can relax.

I am going to get my HAZMAT test tomorrow. Driving test is 7:30AM Thursday. Graduation is the 15th.


One of my classmates is scheduled for that day. He is a Egyptian English teacher. That is if his wife will let him!

 

I never drove OTR. I did line haul for a few months hauling jet A and avgas. I hauled concrete, block, drywall, rebar, and sod. I got tired of the less than laborer pay. I quit a job back then making $6.50 hauling block. Picked up a shovel and started at $7

 

I am looking forward to going too. My girl friend is making a big sacrifice letting me go OTR. So being home for Christmas and her birthday (New Years) is an important thing. We are going to run out and spend a few days with my dad. I haven't seen him in two years.

 

Oh you are going to school!

Good for you! I hope it is a good one.
