Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

Nebraska City, NE, and to make things even funnier, had a canadian trk follow me in thinking this was a good place to take a break. Sent him on down the road to Sapp bro's on IA2 at I29.

 

There are worse.... Like the miller/coors distributor in Council bluffs. its in the middle of a residential area. LOL

 

Congrats on teh upgrade, what did you get for a truck?
Was it at the yard or did you have to 'recover' it?

 

Back from MUCH needed hometime. I had to source an MT, but lucky I found one at Sara Lee in FTW. At Versacold in Ft Worth, and the blindsides are HORRIBLE here! I was inches from a knight driver, she got out and spotted my blind side for me, since I got out prob 20 times, she sure helped me! I think they are on lunch, im in a hole, but just sitting here with doors shut.

 

LOL - I'm with hubby now
We just completed our first team run!! Woo Hoo - it was a dropped trailer from the SLC yard - to VA. Landscaping stuff... needless to say 'trailer washout' when they were done - LOL! Then pick up and heading back up to UT...

 

Congrats what type of tractor did you get?

 

Just came through the training process myself - YES - you can get a different trainer if the first/second/third one isn't working out... I was very lucky and got a good one right off the bat. Klingon didn't get a good one - he was after miles/extra log book... especially after he found out K had previous driving experience. MY trainer has answered more questions for K than his trainer did - which is a sad statement

Make sure you ask questions too - the trainers get as much information about you as you get about them - basically - do you smoke and are you male or female... that's it. They have NO CLUE what info you know or don't know... so ask questions... and have fun

 

Nice run! Lots of miles.

Hope it keeps up for you!

 

So mzshead and I started our training today. Out trainer sounds awesome. Sounds like he really knows his stuff. So far its really cool. Pretty easy but alot of stuff to look at. Its fun so far though. Wensday we are gonna take our writen test. Cant wait to get started driving. Here we come boys! lol

 

Hey new here and to trucking in general... Quick question... Has anyone been through or know anyone who has been through the new training school for Central in Federal Way WA? I am planning on headin in there on Wednesday to check out an "informational meeting" and decide if trucking is for me. Anyway thanks!
