    I almost quit today but decided to let the instructor know about it and my feelings towards j. He said give it another chance and reminded the class to be nicer. Not the apporach I would not have taken but its not my school. I just wanna do my time and get it over with. On the bus i rehearsed the pre trip for the engine compatrment and had all the bus quiet. Yes I remembered it just like the day i took it.

    I am tired of getting called names. I only have x amount of days and will push myself over my breaking pont. Anyone: I dare you to insult me as your jealous of me. I told the class if it continues, ill go home for a week and come back with a new class. Were all here for the same thing not joke around nor do call people names. I know Swift is reading this so Ill thank them for the suite and good instructors.

    A couple things I do want them to answer is how can people have fridges when the inverter rule is 400 watts? How come a guy named bam is telling people how to back when he does not have cdl yet. Even I refused to answer questions in this reguard. I only told them my experiences. I am not demnading but want to know as I keep getting CONFUSED.

    I swear to God if you quit now, then I shall send a swarm of locusts after you. You've worked so hard over the past several months to just up and throw everything away that you've obtained. These pricks that are in your class right now that will not shut the hell up and leave you alone, ignore them and forget about them. Compared to what you have coming up in the short term as far as the additional training that you have, they are nothing more than distracting gnats under your shoes. Forget about them. If you let them distract and upset you now to the point of quitting, then they have won. Please don't let that happen. Get names and talk to the administrators. Who knows? Maybe those individuals that are harassing you now may be threatened to get sent home, then the ball will be completely in your field. As someone else has mentioned, talk to the administrators about your situation and hopefully there will be a conclusion out of this mostly in your favor. You guys are there to learn, and not pick on each other.

    What Driver said.

    You're going to run into the same problem with the next class unfortunately, so just stick it out, get a better grade, and watch em drop like flies.

    As far as telling people in the class to "play nice," that BS never worked in high school. We aaaall knew that telling an authority figure that you were being picked on resulted in a chat with the bully about how bad it is to hurt someone's feelings and how they should be more sensitive. As soon as the chat was over, it ended up being 10 times worse.

    Since the people you're training with have a high school mentality, I'm not surprised things haven't changed!

    They see you as mentally handicapped. Just imagine the look on their faces when you end up whippin' their ### during school, if they get that far. Heck, if they wash out, you could always get revenge by pointing them to CR England.

    NO QUITTING!!!!

    This will be the toughest thing you have ever done, but you absolutely positively have to ignore those monkeys! I swear, I wish I was there right now. Granted, I'd be fired, but I'd be fired with skin hanging off my knuckles and someone elses blood spatter all over my shirt. Got suspended in HS for the exact same thing. Bullies messing around with a kid, I finally had enough of it and hammered two of them into the floor.

    Please, please please please please.... don't even entertain the thought of quitting. SMOKE their kiesters in the testing, driving, etc. Remember, YOU have actually been behind the wheel of a truck before on a real road, not a driving range. YOU are light years ahead of those moronic tightly wound coils of steaming dog excrement. They are to YOU what dog crap is to your sneaker! Scrape them off on the nearest curb and go on about your business.












    Just one minute. ONE minute with one of those rotting piles of maggot infested road carrion. Thats all I ask.

    Yeah i agree, people like that are everywhere. They're going to be in every class you attend and in every city you go to. You just have to find a way to deal with it. I personally would try and find a way to deal without away from the instructors because you won't always have someone there like an instructor to talk to these idiots. I think your doing a great job so far, just have to tune them out. Who cares if they call you names to your face or behind your back, they're just that, words. I would just keep doing what your doing and focus on why you're there.
