    I failed the alley dock first time. Yesterday I got blind side parallel. I tried once and was too close to the front of the box so I drove all the way around and reset. Put it in great the second time. I had lost no points on my straight line or offset.

    So far this week, 4 out of 4 students failed the skills test at our school.

    Disclaimer: none of them spent their own money for schooling and currently receive money from our government. #noincentivetoworkhard

    I was lucky and got a great examiner, the first thing he said was "relax, I want you to pass" I breezed through everything, in skills the only points I had was a pull up on drivers side parallel.

    That is great congratulations on getting your cdl. Nortex why do you hate that students that go to your school have Government money? The school I went to was paid by the state and I was very worried that I was going to fail my 3rd time. I push myself everyday at school because the money that was going to the school was not my.
