    don't go to C1 in Ft worth. That place is a joke.

    The one in INDY seems to be better.
    I have not been there as a student, but the usa truck terminal is right next to it.
    SO I have been there as a driver.
    They kinda just seem more profrssional there

    Really? C1? I did that, foolishly. Almost done with USA now too. I dropped a load in the new Atlanta terminal yesterday, professional drivers? You should see all the damaged, beat up trucks and the beat up trailers.

    As for shifting and being instructed "too aggressively", come on? Are we that thin skinned as a society now? Yeah we are......either you can drive or you can't. If the instructor bothered you, wait till your somewhere, holding up other drivers, I assure you, they won't hold your hand while telling you to get the h### outta the way.

    yea, i think that's why some of those guys are like that.
    Because it can get kinda crazy on there on the road, or in a truck stop.

    Yea I just hate how i make no money at USA.

    Oh I make money, I just don't like the whole contract thing, oh well, it's almost over, live and learn. After all, remember USA's slogan, "experience USA", well I have, I will write about it in detail when its over.

    In my opinion, the instructor was tatally unprofessional. I have very thick skin, but I would have pulled the rig over and ask him to get out and we'd see who behaved liked a woman after I kicked his candy a-- all over the road, and then stomped him with my high heels. BTW I'm a male.:biggrin_2559:

    USA truck just sent me to pick up a load, and when i get there another driver already picked it up.
    how stupid are these people?

    you have 3 loads ready to be picked up, and you send 5 drivers to pick them up!
    can you count to 3 you #######?
    you only have 3 loads there, don't send more than 3 drivers to pick up loads there!!!!!!
    they do this all the time.

    I swear my dog could dispatch me better than these clowns.

    It does seem strange. Like teaching a teen to drive a stick shift, knowing that she's never going to touch one in her life. Oh, wait. That's my daughter. Strange.
