    Just getting chance to touch base on here. Been rolling hard for past couple of weeks. Spent 8 days running in the Northeast (New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia, Delaware) before getting routed to Ohio, Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, and back to SpringMo. Hoping to test out Friday or Saturday. Wish me luck...

    Well I wont be testing out this weekend after all. Lets just say I had "instructor issues" and leave it at that for now. I will say he is no longer a Prime employee which will be a blessing to u incoming students.... Since I didnt feel I received proper assistance preparing for the CDL test I have been assigned a new instructor and will be going back on the road for a week. Not really disappointed with that because thats better than going to take a test u know u will fail and ending ur career before it starts. Despite my instructor's shortfalls, there were plenty of other students and instructors who tried to help me prepare the past few days. I am thankful to them all. But the one person who took nearly three hours of his time to help me learn my pretrip last nite was Seebs. I really appreciate the help man! U really helped me get the concept down and when my new instructor evaluated me on the pretrip he said he was impressed and I would have passed the actual pretrip if I had remembered to turn the truck off to do my air brake check!!! The one thing we couldnt practice last nite because the truck was locked... Really though??? But I would never have made it that far without your help. I really appreciate that and I really appreciate the pep talk and advice from u and ur trainer. Thanks man!
