New Driver training for wife and I.

LOL of course. I only pulled one 80 miles empty when we did a relay load for a driver. It’s pretty cool, and I didn’t mind pulling it but they are awfully low to the ground!

 

Week 1 in the books. We’re both getting a lot better which is all you can ask for this point. I actually got to pull some dry vans in addition to all the flatbed work.

 

neither of us are perfect but I am a lucky man. The training process is obviously necessary But it’s awesome that we can do that locally and come home every night together. We are looking forward to actually driving together when the 4 weeks of training is done.

 

Yes, but nothing set in stone as of now, we just know that we want a set schedule. 2pm to 2 am is the favorite right now.

 

Week 5 of local company training. We drive to work, drive local to pick up loads or deliver them Then drive home at the end of the day. I did 3 weeks of flatbed and this is my 2nd week of dry van. My wife's training has been reversed with three weeks of dry van and this is her second week of flat bed.

Amhof has been awesome and we are happy we signed on with them. So far only good surprises like **a brand new 2023 Freightliner** sitting in the yard waiting on us to finish training!

With flatbed training is usually 6 weeks for new drivers so hopefully we will be done next week. I feel like with patience (and maybe a pull up or two) I can put a trailer where it needs to be at this point.
