Day one down. Safety gear issued a little book work tonight and yard training starts tomorrow. Even if you have boots i reccomend getting the sni approved boots at 35 bucks. They are selling them at a loss of you compair them to retail pricing .

And now the fun begins. We begin slow maneuvering today along with road driving. So we all get to see eachothers skill levels. In the classroom we all are the same. But behind the wheel thats another story.

Played with the simulator on shifting. And without any feed back its hard to do with just the gauges, no screen or anything. They were attempting to see how we do shifting. I blew on the sim. Immidiately after got in the truck for road driving and did just fine. Need to practice skip shifting and doubling down so i dont have to think as much but. On the road is still better than the sim.

More yard time. Backing and slow maneuvers. I also passed my road test today. That much closer to going out with my TE.
Alexx i should be here thru the week and going out with my TE as early as sunday and then back the following week. So if you get thru your first week on schedule we will pass by possibly at the hotel. Are you staying at the comfort inn? If your driving rush hour here starts about 430 and goes to 6 maybe later depending on accidents. Bring a back pack to lug your stuff and logs around and i highly reccomend a boonie hat and or a cool wrap it is super hot on that tarmac in the yard. -
Good stuff. Dont believe we've had someone from the Dallas OC reporting. Very helpful. Good on ya driver!!!!

Yea they dont drug test here they do a urine test for protiens and sugars. If you want the provided breakfast i def reccomend getting down there early as there are a ton of people here. The bus leaves at 630 on the nose, so be ready when it gets there. Most of the instructors are easy going there are a few gruff hard ### types but listen to what they are saying. They want you to pass as much as we want to pass. The lunches at the oc are pretty decent. I recommend the burgers.
alexx0371 Thanks this.
