Roehl Orientation Date 03/07

Thanks Rebel.



Hey thanks Camera. Looks like you have a year or twenty experience on us. lol
Right now I am out of questions, I'm just ready to get rolling.
But I know i'll have some later.. lol

 

Kazak, did you see in Cheryl's email that to ensure that you get repaid for school expenses that we need to fax the school receipt to our recruiter?
It says if we turn it in at orientation that we are not guarantee we'll be repaid.

I found this thread and thought I would bring it here for other newbies.

My bags are packed, sleeping bag, pillow, clipboard, i've put together a small tool box to have when I hit the road solo. All paperwork is together and yet I feel i'm missing something. Any help...

 

I've been doing my homework. Theirs alot of great info on here if you pay attention to people that are offering their experiences.

 

Orientation in T-31 hours.
Hey I finally figured out what I forgot. Rain gear, always had bunker gear at the fire dept. never thought about.

 

Thanks Rocky.
Day 1 in the books, rooming with Kazak.
The physical test was a joke to all 6 of us, its nnnoooo problem.
Time to start day 2 with some driver evaluations.
Also saw several new trucks come through the gate yesterday during breaks. They have around 20 older trucks on the yard.
The different colored trucks are from other companies that Roehl has bought over the last few years, colors mean nothing.

 

Day 2 and 3, Driving around Ellenwood and surrounding towns practicing shifting/turns and making sure we used 5th during the turn.(very rusty after only a week off) I did pick my timing back up again today. And we are still required to double clutch!!!!!
Have been doing homework at nights with not much time to goof off (computer time).
Well time to call the wife and get some sack time.
