Apprentice program progress

Well I have decided to start a thread on the progress of my apprenticeship at con-way freight. Didnt rele seem like anyone here wen through it so i have decided to post all my progresses here.

its week 4, been on the dock doing the inbound every day so far, had to watch a bunch of training videos and take some tests that were on the videos. they have u do a defensive driving class which is called the smith driving systems, then they take you for a little driving test in a car. I believe in the next week or two they willl have me learn the safe stack system

 

yestersday i learnt how to use the safestack system, all the procedures, on how to load up the trailer, plus other stuff on how to properly load. was actually a cool lesson and was like building a puzzle. Not too sure when the next class or training is but i will keep everyomne posted if u like

 

my terminal they only allow a certain load weight on the top racks, but pulling the doubles i never thought about, thx for the advice. still very nervous of pulling my first set of doubles, my class starts the 28th, and my trainer says he will have me pull them so i can get used to them

 

I understand that your not tryin to scare me, i actually appreciate that u took the time to explain some possible stuff that could happen. everyone at work is cool like that too, n e questions i have or stories they had with something that couldve happend theyve told me this way i can knw wut to expect

 

started doing the outbound yesterday. its very fast paced, and a lot faster than the inbound, because the line haul has to be out by certain times

 

start inbound at 7am, usually till 10 or 11, then i clock out for class for about 4 hours, then i do the outbound till about 830ish
