    What Atlas do you guys have. I have the 2010 Large Print version with synthetic pages. The 2011 does not come in the Large Print version, RM said they dropped it for 2011.

    So yesterday I delivered the load in Raleigh, NC, did a D/H at the drop yard in high point (picked up a nice 48' trailer) and brought it back to conover. Then I brought my truck to blue ridge just before they closed and dropped it off and came home. I also turned in 5 trip enovolopes 2300+ miles I still have one more to do when I get back. They said my truck should be fixed by saturday, so since I left home September 26th and its now NOVEMBER 5th I think I deserve a day or two off lol.

    So, it would seem everyone in this thread really likes W/S... I start driver training on monday, and I'm seriously considering WS when I'm done.

    Well since I'm retarded and don't know what day it is lol I'll be home until Sunday morning. I was thinking I'd do a 34 hour reset while the truck is getting fixed, and for some reason I thought today was Saturday and that my reset would be over at 3am on Sunday morning lol when it really ends 3am Saturday morning. My bad but I'll take 2 days off, today was pretty much a waste anyway.

    Now I just have to figure out how to get to my truck, If I drive my pickup back to the terminal I still need to get over to the shop to get my truck lol

    Hey Super G Welcome to TTR!! There are a bunch of great threads here in W/S about their training day to day by several drivers and then once they have hit the road. You already found American Trucker-Check out CAGEtrucker and Chralb's threads too!! They are packed with alot of information that should be helpful. You can also PM (personal message) specific Members with questions if you don't want to post but until you get 50 posts you have to ask the mods to help.

    You should get some great information here and the drivers are all great!!
    Good luck to you and Welcome!!!!

    You must be tired cuz it's only FRIDAY!! LOL!! Don't forget your have to ''fall'' behind Saturday night/Sunday AM- so you get an extra hour!!

    Actually that brings up a good question: how does that affect your hours?

    I must be lol

    Well from what I've read on here, and if I'm remembering it right you get an extra hour and you have to flag or mark it on the log somehow.......I'm not 100% sure, funny you ask that because I am currently looking for that right now lol. When I find it I'll re-post it on here :biggrin_255:.
