    It's important to know your limits...otherwise, you hurt yourself and won't even be able to be a steering wheel holder. :)

    LOL, with a running start I'd just hurt myself running into the trailer...but hey...if they can run, they can't be that bad. :)

    so its been a little while since ive updated. i left tmc orientation in the afternoon on the 21st to drive down to Louisiana to meet my trainer (my choice) however his truck broke down in the morning of the 21st. that definitely would of been nice to know. ive sat in a hotel all week waiting for the truck to be diagnosed and fixed locally. at least im getting paid. but this pushes back my finish training date to almost September. if i stop and get my truck before i go home i wont be home until the middle of September because they dont guarantee to be home the first weekend. it is what it is and this week would of been better spent at home, at the same time if i was home i would not of been paid for sitting this week. hope you all are having a great week

    well my trainer started getting grumpy with them today and the truck should be out of the service center soon. then we have a load of lumber to pick up and head to Iowa with. its not too far from home so the wife is gonna come and pick me up tomorrow night if all goes as planned. but im not counting on that because anything can change
