PRIME drivers...What's your 20?

Holland MI.

Waited out winds in Lansing tonight - was wondering how this was going to work out. Well... the winds may have died down there, but were really howlin' by the time I got up to GD Rapids. And I got my own definition of what the "GD" stands for! Got to the point I had to really slow down to keep the trailer on the ground. Got up to Zeeland, traded my mty for one that's loaded. Came back down a few miles to WallyWorld. Parked into the wind, and she's still rockin' n' rollin'.

'Nuffs enuff fer one day!

 

I think that we can urge our members on here to find a trainers name for you. Keep posting here and see what we can come up with. I do hope that they explained why it is such a long waiting period. We don't have many female CDL trainers, as most female drivers are teaming with their husbands/partners. I do know of 2 trainers/instructors that are currently training drivers. There might be a few more, but very few. I am not sure if it is Prime's policy to not let male trainers train females (unless husband/partner) but I do know that it is the best policy for your protection as well as the trainers.

Just watched another prime driver pull up 10 times to get into the door here at Wrigleys. There is enough room between each door to park another trailer. I am just glad that there are not alot of people parked here to watch that show ...

 

JCW is in Wayland, MO headed for Blaine, MN soon as his 10 is up.

 

So what? He got in, right? Instead of worrying about how many pullups someone else has, concentrate on your own stuff. He's not perfect, and neither are you. Maybe if we quit cutting each other off at the knees, others might follow suit.

 

Not cuttin' ... just sharin' an experience....

 

Like I said, you gave some advice. If you are giving bad info, I'm gonna call you out on it.

It helps no one by telling a newbie they are gonna get paid for something they actually will not get paid for.

 

Pulled into the TA in Oakley, KS for fuel and decided to grab a spot for the night. 45K of Mocha Frappucino for Pepsi in Denver at 1500. Overheard line up saying they were fifteen loads short today. Glad FM got me hooked up right away.

 

Sitting at the Pilot in Lodi Ohio waiting for a load. Two days of all night driving sucks, Want back on days. Home in 7

 

Pulling into Cheyenne for some grub and a shower. Drove nearly 600 miles including the width of Nebraska! Another 4 state run for the new guy. Had 7 minutes left when I crossed the state line.

 

We got as far as AZ border before we got turned around with a repower going to Sterling IL for tomorrow early.

Left Springfield Tues afternoon, repower mid day yesterday, currently grabbing lunch in Kearney MO. Gonna grab some zzzs in a parked truck at Walcott, IA.

We'll be empty early tomorrow morning, so hopefully we'll have something lined up for the weekend.
