    I've been told twice last 3 weeks , that it doesn't matter if I list last 15 , they're interested in the last 3 to 5.

    Do see better at night with the Kenworth lights? My trainer at Swift had a T660. It wasn't as roomy as the cascadia but I still liked it. I was only in it for five days at a time though.

    The employment history going back 10 yrs pertains only to that of large vehicle operation. Generally speaking a driver applicant with no driving experience is required to show his or her work history dating back 3 yrs.

    Day one of orientation in the books. They have me as a refresher on training phase 3. They say there is a trainer that will be here on Friday, and we are to run team. I told them that I can't sleep in a moving truck. Brian said the trainer would work with me. I just want to get my stamina back so I can solo out. But I like what I am hearing from orientation so far. Driving test tomorrow and in depth eLog training as well. 3 new peeps for orientation, too.

    Sux....Transflo app no workie on this tablet. Oh well.

    That is about the only purpose of a apu on the ground is ac. It does supply some electrical power if ground power is not available. Most companies don't even keep them because of fuel costs. They added weight and there usage.

    Be grateful they put you as a refresher, stage 3. Two weeks tops and you're on your own.
