DOT FOODS - MT SRTERLING, IL. New Beginnings

Out for week 5 of driver training. IL to GA to IL. Then unknown after that. Still learning and having fun. Safe miles to all!

 

Hope all went well with your Ohio trip, safe miles!

 

Week 5 of driver training complete. One or two weeks left before being released to run solo. Had a great week this week, trip to GA, IL. Then more IL To fill out the week. Sunday through Thursday, time for a weekend off. Out Sunday to places unknown at this time yet. Safe miles to all!

 

Week 6 of driver training about finished. Be back to Mt.Sterling,IL. In the AM. One more week with my trainer, week #7 and then solo. Having fun, blessed with an awesome trainer!

 

A sampling of random parts of the book, HOS,Safety questions, drug testing. I took the test in Cdl school, this was a repeat of that for the most part. Most questions can be answered from common sense & memory, process of elimination. I don't think your test result has an impact on your being hired.

 

Week #7 of driver training, started in IL Monday to Flowood,MS. To Dyersburg, TN. Tuesday. Wednesday am from TN to Hammond,LA. Pick up in the Hammond area then roll back to IL. Training is finished after this week, 7 weeks training & then SOLO next week. Still having fun in my second career. Safe miles all!

 

First week solo driving after training with an awesome trainer! Sunday off to Wisconsin, back to Illinois on Monday after a delivery & a pick up. Rolling out Tuesday for a transfer in Illinois with another driver. Starting slow & then ramping up the number & work required for each load. Still enjoying my new career. Safe miles to all!
