Millis OTR journal

STP and Megadeth? Weird combo for sure. I've only seen Megadeth once, sadly. Great show. Megadeth, Testament, and Judas Priest. Never been much of a Priest fan, I left shortly after the first two bands finished lol. The atmosphere got weird very quickly.

 

I think you need to relax a little. Remember what it was like to be new. There are definitely differences from state to state and there is certainly no harm in asking. There are plenty of truckers out there that got grandfathered in on a chauffeur license. They never had to take the test. Are you saying trucking isn't for them as well? If you aren't going to be helpful to new folks, this thread is definitely not for you. Go be annoying somewhere else.

 

I can't argue your point about some new drivers. Blame the megas for that. Millis training is very in depth and difficult. They aren't a cookie-cutter company. You aren't going to see crappy drivers there, period. Training and testing are two completely separate animals. These guys are getting top level training. They aren't Swifties. There are plenty of people who passed the test that YOU NEVER TOOK and are terrible drivers. There is no reason why a quality caliber driver should get hung up because a particular state's test is overly difficult.

 

#### man, Megadeth and Slayer? Wow, that must have been awesome. I'm jealous. Rust In Peace is my favorite album. And Seasons In The Abyss was amazing as well. One of the days we gotta figure out a way to hook up for a beer. I'd love to hear the stories. I think, and I may be wrong, Priest was touring on the Painkiller album when I saw them. I stayed for the first 5 or 6 songs and the crowd turned real ugly. But, par for the course. Don't like truckers, don't like bikers. The whole atmosphere changed as soon as they hit the stage. Fights and a general electric feeling took over the whole place. It got really weird really fast.

 

I met Glenn once, briefly. Interesting dude. And Type O Negative... haven't heard that name in a while. Love that band! Christian Woman can be heard regularly in my truck lol.
