Has anyone ever heard of this?

if he does show up here for the meeting that should have started at 7am mountain time I will make it clear to the guy we are meeting that I will drive back to texas without student. He already showed his cards in my view when he packed up and left truck.

 

He was already talking about buying a peterbilt and decking it out so he wouldn't have to idle the truck. Thing is he would have to actually drive the truck.

 

with the way I run. 10 I'm down and then I drive had I started out with the mentality o have when behind the wheel and with this as the end result, he would not have gotten as many hours as he did with me. Starting at night he drove two hours and had to park and get more sleep. That is when I started slowing the process down. What he didn't like was me telling him when how and why to do the things required to not mess things up badly and kill himself, me or others.

 

You're correct. And the next trainer he gets if he stays will for sure be harder on him than I was. I determined he would not be getting on my truck again right after he told the guy last night he felt he was driving too much. There is no way he could twist it and say it's my fault he drove too much. He needs 200 hours. I gave him the avenue to do so at his own pace within staying legal and he didn't like the grind. He is in for a rude awakening sadly because he will have to drive alot. Now and when and or if he gets to solo status. Think he could have approached me and told me he wanted off the truck. Looks like I'm going to have to pull the blunt and this is real trucking card with each new student before the wheels roll so they know how I and my driver leader and planners like to run and what they are in for. If they stay after that they have only themselves to blame. Appreciate it patty

 

Student never showed up to the meeting. He was taken off my truck. About to get some sleep for load leaving tonight sometime going to texas to pick up new student.
