I think Craig's wife had to wait because she was gonna go with a female trainer at first . My wife had a bit of a wait too. Males have it easier. Mine met me at Markham.
Jake, congrats man. Hope you make a lot of $$$. Enjoy all those ladies every weekend.JakeBrakeRem Thanks this. -
The big issue was non-smoking trainer and she was ok with a male trainer but not a lot of male trainers will take a female. Just made it tougher
-
Oh that's right.
My wife's trainer didn't smoke but loved cooking in the truck. He was overweight, this guy would eat like six times a day. Cook in the truck then buy truck stop food a few hours later. Truck was full of dirty pots & fast food wrappers.
If a woman driver can survive her trainer then she can survive anything. LOL. -
i chose male trainer non smoker
-
well i finally got my trainer. i got to go to dallas texas to meet him. He does a "long horn" account? runs from texas to florida and the rest of the south east states. Gotta go to hagerstown md tomorrow to get on the bus. Not looking foreward to that at all. but hey atleast i got a trainer
-
That sucks man !
That is going to be one long boring ride. I will keep my fingers crossed that your trainer turns out to be a good one. If he isn't....don't accept it. -
so if i have a problem with my trainer i can ask for a new one?
-
Yes, as long as you are reasonable. Unless he really sucks or is unsafe, suck it up and grind through your 150 hours. You are not just an extra log book. Make sure you do some of the backing and learn the macros. You should be doing ALL the driving until you reach 75 hours. My trainer and I cheated on this a little but not in a way that hurt my training.JakeBrakeRem Thanks this.

he stays in the south east. ill be in the north east afterr training. will that affect me at all?
