There is a truck with a dinky trailer attached to it at campus. People use that for pre trip practice.
Well got checked in this morning at campus inn. Found out to my surprise that my orientation doesn't start till Tuesday morning. I'm still gonna get up early see if I can get somethings done or started tomorrow if they will let me. Never hurts to try and get a head start. Already here might as well move the ball forward.
Gonna go out there and check it out later. Waiting on a video call from my wife so I can watch some of a baby shower for our youngest daughters first kid.
Are you working as a company driver? I read on that yellow packet that company drivers start Tuesday, but I'm being told to be at orientation on Monday. So I'll just go on Mondays orientation to play it safe.
They have ne down as company but I have to do training cause I have not been otr in 11 years. Then im gonna go lease after the training.
Well have to wait till tomorrow which is Tuesday for my orientation. But using time wisely by now being 3/4 done with cbt's. Then off to do more on making sure I can do pretrip ( doesn't seem hard just got to remember things ). Then a little down time for me.
On about day three of orientation they will have a pre trip class. They really do a great job of breaking all of it down to simplify it. Abbreviations like PMS: properly mounted and secured CBB: (not) cracked vent or broken ABC: abrasions bulges or cuts. They'll give you so much good info it really makes the pre trip simple.
Well all cbt's are done. Did a little pretrip practice. Cant wait to get started tomorrow. Just hope I dont get the night sims like my roommate got but if I do ill deal with it. So goes the life of a trucker.
