    I was the 'soccer mom' for my orientation also but that was by default since it was just me in that orientation. There's six of you? sheesh. They got six trucks ready? lol

    Glad to hear your orientation is going good! I'm kinda nervous for mine on Monday with Knight, I just graduated from school last Thursday and I too can't wait to go OTR. I'm nervous for any competition there might be as far as other drivers. Any pointers?

    I wouldn't worry about it man. Just keep your head up and do what you're told in orientation. As long as you pass everything you should be just fine bro

    Looks like you're finally getting your OD dreams to come true! I just saw their webpage earlier today. Good luck, man! :biggrin_255:

    I havent been on TTR for a few months, but I was really surprised to read that you'd left OTR in the 1st place! But hey, every step is on the path to somewhere (hopefully better, as in your case.)

    And as far as TWIC is concerned, it's just a paper work and waiting game. I just picked mine up a month ago in Sacto, CA. When I go home Monday, I'm going to take the HazMat, tankers & dub/trips test. Then I'll be all set for anything except a bus!

    Well I passed my road test today. Just got back and sitting outside now waiting for the rest of the class to finish.

    We took our tests in a long nose Pete, I'm really really really hoping I get one of those

I'm excited man, I hope I get one of the 379's out in the yard. First time driving one and now I don't wanna drive anything else haha
