    That's true about the bucket list but I got to do as much as I can :) I think it would be better if I came over in July ,lol

    Maybe I could be like Passport and keep going back to Thailand or Philippines in the winter. :biggrin_2559:

    Anyone heard from Passport and what he is up to.

    Hello all, just updating my experience in orientation. Yesterday we focused more on chapters 2 & 3 and pretty much skimmed them the others. We got to do a trip sheet and BOL form. He also dispatched us on the treq and had us go through the motions of what to do. We learned about sliding tandems, the meat hole, the california rule, how to operate the thermo king and some other things. All in all yesterday was very productive.

    Going to a new city on Monday for a pick up. New Bedford, MA. Looks like it's right on the coast.

    And cranky, least ja-da-trucker learned his lesson quickly.
