    Hey Jerz, I didnt run out of hours.After todays driving, I had 2 hours left. Good. Tomorrow I can recap and gain 12+ hours. I guess tomorrow is our last day of driving/training. I get to do the night drive tomorrow. Coooool. I get to see the chicken lights in my mirrors! Milskired answered you about Nate. They had somebody fill in for securement. I liked him and thought he was a good trainer. There is a driver trainer, from Texas, that is here and applied for the securement training position. He also seems like a great guy and has been "pitching in" helping us students. I've not even been with TMC for 2 weeks, but I gotta say I have zero complaints. Everybody has been above top quality. I can only assume that you and Milskired are the same, as I'm sure most drivers are. Hopefully one day I can meet you guys and maybe buy you a burger at the Chrome Cafe.:biggrin_255:

    Hey guy. I wish my trainer lived in Nebo. I have to drive all the way to Knoxville, Tn to meet my trainer. I did request a non smoker though. So maybe that had something to do with it??
    Yah, I should get back home early saturday morning. The driver trainer is supposed to call me "sometime on saturday." I have NO IDEA what will be said on that phone conversation. :biggrin_2556:

    My trainer called me friday night, with an attitude, asking me how my shifting was, if it was smooth or rough. Had me worried. I later found out his last trainee sucked at shifting and had a tendency to go from 1st to low:biggrin_25524: Turned out to be a great guy.

    well one week out and it was a great time and saw alot, but i decided at this piont and time i didnt want to be away from my wife and 4 little kids that much, TMC is and was a great place to work but just not for me right now, I let training know on friday that OTR was not for me right now. I am back at home and going torun local till my kids grow up and then we will see... my trainer was good but he sure did like to run, we were runing teams like day 2 wasnt supose to but he saw i could drive and we put the hammer down. like i said Great Guy..
