    what did you train in?

    You must be pretty pumped up, and a tad nervous.

    Awesome. I'll be there with my husband. So far we have found 2 companies that have said yes to hiring me, maybe for him, keep your fingers crossed!!

    I used to drive tractor/flat bed trailer in the Air Force years ago. And we own a dump truck now. So at least I have a little familiarity going in. But I still have a lot to learn.

    After getting my inverter installed I knew the truck was not idling right :biggrin_25524: seemed it was missing a cylinder so they told me to bring to frieghtliner. That was 2am and I'm sitting here at the best western waiting on the shuttle to get me back to terminal:biggrin_25513: they keep saying ones running but I've been sitting here 3hrs, don't worry i'll give a full report once I get my first load. Kinda glad this happened I'm
    more chilled out, plus I got to detail the truck a little better.
