Beginning the Long Awaited CDL Process

Why I'm Home.

Hello Everyone.

After a meeting with the training department in SLC, before continuing with my training, Central would like to know if it's possible for any improvement in my hearing.

I agreed to investigate all the alternatives, and Central has agreed that I will not lose my job, and my driving position will still be waiting for me upon my return.

Central paid my way home, so that I could try to expedite matters. I definitely applaud Central Refrigerated's effort in this matter, but I think this could have been avoided with a little effort (like speaking up) on the part my trainer.

I guess it's too much trouble talking to me in a truck. Funny how my driving instructors and the DDS inspectors didn't have any trouble communicating their wishes to me. Maybe he could have done a better job of learning to communicate with me by spending some time in the jump seat. I'm not deaf.

That's my rant. Not much, I know, but the last three days have been the toughest, and they had nothing to do with driving trucks.

I guess I didn't see it coming. So now I have to try and fix something the DOT says I don't have to fix.

I'll be sure to let you know how things turn out.

Thanks for reading.

I'm all over it like a rash.

But this is a case of a trainer enhanced hallucination. Seeing what he wants, not what is. It's not right.

 

Hey Sammycat,

Just another minor setback. Hopefully I can get it sorted out in short order. I met with the doctor today. Only problem is this stuff costs money, and I don'y have much left.

Good thing I believe in the power of prayer.

 

I can't even begin to describe the frustration.

Well, I'm not done yet, that's a fact.
