    Got a call from the processor Darlene yesterday. She was calling to confirm what school I am in and when I'll be graduating, as I was not in school when I applied. She seemed to be just as nice as everyone I have spoken to at W/S so far. As we were talking it became apearant that I'll have to push my orientation date up again, School is taking longer than I had planned.

    I'm shooting for orientation the first or second week of April. Anyone else going to Conover around that time? I'm hoping I won't be the only guy in my class who's going to Watkins.

    I am heading there Saturday for the March 21 class. I feel privileged to be one of the chosen and I am really looking forward to it. Though I have had a CDL since 85, I don't have too many long distance miles under my belt and none pulling a trailer. I hope to learn a lot. Also what types of tractors is WS running and how are they equiped, i.e., engine, trans, Jake, etc.?

    Someone posted this for me on a different thread. As far as I can remember, it's a fleet of Volvo 670s, Freightliner Columbias and Century Classes with a few Cascadias. All have jakes and are 10 speed standards. That's all I can remember at the moment.
