April 9th orientation in marshfield

Congrats to you and your classmates!

I'm kinda excited that my first company recruit is almost done. I'm really proud of all your hard work and know that this will change your family's life for the better. The future is yours to command now!

 

I wonder if we get a graduation cattle prod...that would be nice.

 

Sort of, you get the business end of one. Zzaaaaaaapppp!

 

see, that's what I'm afraid of...and if Brian's the one holding the other end, I'm really in trouble.

 

T-Lady I have been reading your posts since you started training I am waiting for the call to schedule my physical for Roehl and I will be heading for marshfield.Thank you for all that you have shared I feel that now I at least have an idea of what to expect.Be safe in phase 2 and I hope to meet you on the road some time. And congrats to all 3 of you.

 

Our trio has been eating well. Chris cooks eggs and hashbrowns on the weekends, and we have had spaghetti, sloppy joes, burgers, jumbo and barbecued ribs. One slow cooker, one hotplate, one sandwich maker (like a panini grill)...Yum!
Time to relax and digest, then bedtime...tomorrow starts the final week of RDTC, and focuses on Paperwork, policies and regulations.

 

T-lady I have really enjoyed reading all of your posts. I am starting at a local truck driving school in two weeks and cannot wait. My husband has his CDL and we are thinking abou going to drive for Roehl as a team. He's actually worked for them before and we think they are a good company. Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and good luck on your journey.

 

Today was a roadtrip to the DMV to get our licenses, then driving out "in the wild". Following directions and map reading skills are tested. Then lunch followed by work on the range. Some backing, some pull-through...the areas that can get a driver in trouble pretty quick.
Tomorrow is paperwork and top secret stuff I can't share or I wind up on a milk carton.

 

Id love to get credit for new drivers joining up...anyone who uses this thread as a deciding factor, feel free to let Roehl know who sent ya. LMAO!

 

A.M. meeting and stuff, afternoon driving...out of town practice is good. It gives us a feel for what's up and coming. I've had "rough" starts lately...once I'm driving a little, my brain functions better. It needs to work right away...something to work on for sure. The guys are doing well, minor glitches, and our GPS unit is defective...
