    Pretrip went fast as we only did the drivers side of the truck, INcab and air brake was a breeze. We started driving and he started talking about ice fishing and we BSed the whole time about ice fishing.

    well I am hired by a local timber company. Are you saying that my school would do me no good for OTR? I'm just wondering what you're trying to say driver?

    Great job there Silverram! I see you are from Wyoming MN. I grew up near there in Stacy. What school did you go to? I'm in the first week at Heavy Metal in Inver Grove Heights. Did a live in cab inspection today and brake test. I felt like a teenager getting behind the wheel for the first time!

    Good luck on your new career!

    If you are doing what you want to do, do it. Listen to the naysayers, but only to learn from their mistakes. And most of all, remember that if you didn't learn anything today, then you wasted a day.

    Oops, forgot to say: Well Done. Welcome to the world of big rigs!
