Beginning the Long Awaited CDL Process

They are already wispering about me when I pull in...."whys there a little kid driving that truck....." "he looks to young to drive" "can he even see over the steering wheel" "his dads gonna get in trouble if anyone sees him leting his son drive..."




American Trucker

 

I think he's a little young too remember the disco ball scene, hell so am I. lmao

 

That dude onthefence wrote this..I was like um,miffed ..This was his account of Roehl testing..I don't know how you would forget to drive..but I guess maybe you could???

Well, this sucks. I passed my physical agility test, but failed my road test. It seems that in the month I was not driving a manual shifting turck, I forgot it all. Maybe it was nerves, but that doesn't matter. I am now in a hotel waiting until morning to get on a bus to go home to NY (1 day 2 hours). I already had a pre-hire with US Xpress, which I should have taken, so I will be going to them next. They use only automatics, so hopefully that will work out.

 

That's a good one AT!!
BTW I think disco balls have made a come back for those of you that siad you don't remember them.......since shag rug is also making a come back LOL!!



Hamsterrock-sorry about not passing. Keep up your spirits! USX does use autos (the ex worked there) Volvos and Freightliners. Not bad for a bottom feeder IMHO. He ended up getting the Dollar tree regional run home every weekend. Money not bad. Hardest part was unloading the truck.

 

I helped this guy out when he was having trouble with his straight back.

Hope he does better at USXpress.

 

Hey Sammycat,

I found a picture of my 1960 Falcon I used to race.

Sorry for the poor quality, but in the old days we used cameras that had....... film?!.

 

Thanks Wedge!! VERY COOL!! I bet you had fun too!!

yeah I remember.....film....LOL! and considering I live in Rochester NY and seems like 1/2 my family worked at the ''little yellow box'' company.....back in the days when you made sure every shot counted!!

 

Sammycat, Hamsterrock is talking about "Onthefence" not passing his road test at Roehl.

He (Onthefence) was a guy I helped out when he was having trouble with his straight back an had failed his DMV test twice.

Hamsterrock starts his orientation at Roehl on Monday, I believe.

 

oohhhhhhh okay sometimes I am slow....................
today would be one of those days.



Ignore my post up there a ways!!!!!

 

Hey Wedge,
Finally Got a call from Crete, Wouldn't you know it the one school they stil hire out of is he one we're not enrolled at maybe we can get it changed. The starting pay is pretty good the pay after a year is better, we'll see, anyway its another company on the list.

Now if you guys are into disco balls, and shag carpet, you gotta go take the eye exam at the lasik clinic near you;the machine with the fluorescent colors is awesome and yes, I remember them both. A/T I believe you're to young for shag carpet
See Ya,
Randy
