Female Student Needs Honest Opinions

Bald is beautiful! I love my bald Sphynx cat.

 

yes Roehl...lol

 

I would think any of the threads about Roehl would be a better place to get info on them.

 

Relax... You are right were you need to be. Time behind the wheel ...is all you need to become a sucessful professional driver.

 

Heed the advice of Giggles and just be yourself. Don't let the job change take you out of character. At the end of the day,you must still be wholly satisfied with yourself knowing you've done your best to take steps to pursue your passion for this industry.Be patient and confident knowing that Rome wasn't built in a day.It's a learning process not much different, I guess,from your previous job.There will be times when you hate it and times when you love it.By the way,we(women) have been out here for quite some time but never desired or felt the need to be as vocal as our counterparts(LOL). I have over 30 yrs,millions of safe driving miles,more friends with "handles" than I can remember, and matching top dollar moolah just like my male counterparts.That said...hang in there,keep YOURSELF safe(the freight has more insurance on it than you do)and welcome to my world.

 

So far you have done great!
Don't mess it up by getting in a hurry now.

 

time behind the wheel is inportant but to me driving is the easy part. ;earning to manage your hours with shippers and recievers company paper work etc are all harder. Don't expect too much from your first company other then to build your resume so you can say i have a year under my belt and have driven in the hills rain wind snow. until you get that time you wont even know the questions to ask to pick the company or type of trucking job that fits you. of course you do have to apply some places to get accepted and move on
