Tomorrows first day of orientation. It's been a long wait, but it's finally here. I'll try and post updates each evening to keep you all informed.
First day is usually pretty boring- paperwork,UA (pee test) and road test. Other boring stuff is day 2 & 3.. Tom is a good guy and easy to get along with.
Cam - Where you going to Orientation at? Good luck to you by the way... I'm sure you will do great! Hope to meet up with you on the road.. Truck safe and post how the first day went we will all be wanting to know! PEACE!
Hi Trucker Steve, I'm at Brooks doing orientation. Looking forward to meeting you as well. Be safe out there
My first day of orientation went really good. I was a little concerned about shifting a 13, after training on a 10. Before the road test he asked me what I trained on, then told me just to shift it like an 8 speed and not split gears. That thing shifted so nice, nothing to worry about. Needless to say I think the driving test went very well. Then I went back to the obstacle course, I guess it's called the skills test area. I think it went good as well, didn't hit any cones or run over anything and backed into all the places I was suppose to There was only four us us testing so we went home shortly after lunch, (home town buffet) and I controlled myself lol, in case wifey is reading this More to come tomorrow night, you all be safe out there.
