So today was a stressful day. We turned in our Gold packets, had interviews (basically they review your paperwork and you pay your money.) Make sure you are honest about everything, I forgot a ticket I had received while hunting dove, it was for an overloaded shotgun. The ticket was dismissed but it showed up on my Criminal History to be honest I forgot all about it, anyway that was added to my paperwork and then I went to do my whizz quiz which I know I passed. Got my DOT physical, which I have to go back in the morning to have my BP checked cause it was high which is not normal for me at all, I think it was the stress and dealing with a wannabe super trucker who has more than likely slain a purple dragon while he was a delta force recon ranger SEAL
, since he has "been there and done that". I then went to the simulators for my 7 practice scenarios which were not that bad, however I think the simulators are good as far as learning to double clutch and develop the skills of observing your surroundings. I am quit certain that when you get a load behind you in a real truck the first time reality will kick in.

Get used to them, they are everywhere. I think there are more of them out here on the road than were ever actually in the military.

Enjoy and good luck. Be safe -
Well I am on my way home! My blood pressure was high again 150/90 so I have to leave for 30 days and come back after I am cleared by a Dr. I am going to just take the bus to St.Louis and stay with my sister for a few weeks then back here. I cant believe my blood pressure is high I just had a DOT physical and passed but Prime will not except it. Any way off I go.

Stay away from the Coffee and salt. Drink plenty of water also. I had the same problem while I was there, BP spiked, due to the stress and lack of sleep. My doctor could not figure it out lol, I am normally almost comotose when I go see her and they take my BP.
