First week done in CDL school !

Any info on Davis Mail ? They hire in my area but I heard they do split shift Not sure though ????

 

2nd week of driving school completed and major problem !!!!!!!!!!!

I started doing my driving and backing today and realized I have a BIG problem with my left knee !!!

I know a lot of people have trouble with holding the clutch in and their knee gets a little sore
but I did fine driving and was complimented on my double clutch shifting and all was going well.
But then I started my backing practice and straight line was not too bad and off set was okay but by the time I got around to parallel parking my left knee was hurting so bad I had to keep putting the shifter in neutral and let off the clutch to stop the pain in my knee.

I knew it would be a little sore but I just had to stop, I never expected the pain to be so bad.

I have the next 3 days off and am hoping to figure out what to do. I paid cash for this school and don't want to quit and all they have are 10 speeds and I would be happy just to have a Automatic restriction if needed.

Unless I find a way to stop the severe pain I might have to give it up and I really don't want to do that. I was hoping to get a job with a automatic but wanted the manual endorsement also.

I had a cortisone shot in my right knee back in January and it seemed to help.

Has anyone else done the shot for this problem ?
Also any other ideas how to stop the pain ?

Other guys are saying their knee is sore but mine hurts so bad I get to a certain point I just cant go on.

Any info appreciated
