    It will take sometime to get used to managing your hours, you'll be fine. As far as the anal receiver it's not uncommon for them to be jerks.

    I've been following you for a bit now, u seem to have a good head on your shoulders and utilize common sense. Some days otr can really blow, it was certainly one of those days sounds like. Don't quit or give up, over time it will get better. I agree with some of the others as far as time management goes especially being on elogs.
    I was lucky when I first started out being on paper logs. Just don't abandon your truck and or trailer, if or even when u quit do it the right way.
     
    G13Tomcat and wfutch79 Thank this.

    Thanks for the kind words. I tend to over think things and it gets me worked up. I need to tweak my time management strategy just a little and I will be ok. My trainer/mentor checks up on me at least once a day, most of the time several times a day.

    I am not going anywhere but if I do I will do it the right way.

    Sometimes even when you do your best planning, a short or recvr will screw it up somehow...don't take it like you messed up..it happens to all of us at some point.

    @wfutch79 Dude that happens sometimes in trucking. We have all had those day where you get so mad and frustrated you just want to throw in the towel. You'll be ok bro just stick it out. Once you get a couple months in and get everything down pat it will make things easier most of the time. You still might have days like that, just gotta put it behind you and roll.
    By the way I am sitting at the Liquinta Inn in Columbus right now. Orientation at J&R Schugel in the morning. Hope I see you out there bro.
     
    wfutch79, bigred81, drvrtech77 and 2 others Thank this.
