    Congratulations! Maybe I'll run into you at the terminal. Your start date is just before my next home time, and I may end up passing through there. You'll know me if you see me, I always lurk around the hotel when I spend the night at NLR and chat with the students lol.

    Please do stop in! I've been lurking long enough. It's an odd thing feel like you "know" people you haven't actually met. I'll be easy to spot, I'll be the one that's taller than everyone else.

    Haha, I hang out with the students because they still have hope. If I wanted to hear a bunch of griping I'd sit at a truck stop with my CB on lol. Plus, I enjoy helping them by answering questions and stuff.

    Sewerman, on the other hand, is a big old softie but if the other flatbedders find out they'll never let him forget it. So we'll just keep that secret :biggrin_2559:

    I just have a few things to say:

    Day 2 of orientation is done. I've been flying through the tests/quizzes. Passed the physical and agility tests. I haven't been late and I've avoided all grass. In other words I've made it until at least tomorrow.

    In a past life I worked at a college registering students and others through summer session events. I have to say, Maverick has a pretty good system for getting us through the process of orientation.

    Cheers for one more day!

    I crossed a bridge today! Officially accepted and moving into the barn. Feels pretty good! I have nothing but good things to say about this organization and process so far.

    Thanks all for the feedback and support!
