    I’m at a Edwardsville, Il motel and ready for tomorrow. I think I’ll be getting my truck tomorrow after onboarding and probably going to give me some kind of little test, not sure yet. Can’t get to sleep yet. That won’t be an issue tomorrow night though. Seems like I sleep better in a truck than a motel. Noise has always put me to sleep and it’s dead silent here.
    Anyone else have that problem??

    Struggling with the tablet. I knew I would be. Trying to figure out how and what to put when. I’m going to Edwardsville in the morning. I got my truck and it’s an older Freightliner. It’s got 437k on it so it’s going to have issues. Picked it up in Olathe today. Checked it out and headed to Topeka to pick up an empty trailer to take back to Edwardsville. The guy who had it before me didn’t keep it clean so I’ll be cleaning this thing up whenever I get time to do it. Once I get that tablet figured out, I might surprise them with the miles I’ll be running. Hope so anyway because I need the money! I don’t want to run so hard that I get burnt out either. If could only get that tablet figured out!!

    It'll come with repetition, like anything new.

    We had Qualcoms where I started & took me a bit too. Hated that ###### thing at the start. Especially when in a hurry & time was short.

    No worries, week or two you will not even think twice about it.

    Until it dies one day....... LOL

    (I know, Sshhhhhush).

    So far, so good. Best to you. ✌

    I would submit...with all due respect....that it's YOUR TRAINER'S JOB -- to make sure you know how to use that tablet -- & before you go solo.

    Thus, either:
    • get together/on the phone with your trainer...OR...
    • get another trainer;
    • &/or get on the phone with your favorite TE
