My Trainer Isn't Letting Me Practice Backing

Trust your mirrors. Your mirrors don't show everything, but they are your best tool to see what is around you. They have blind spots. The spot mirrors distort distances between objects but if there is a gap between you and the other items in the spot mirrors at all times you can't hit those objects unless one of you are invisible. Trusting your gut is not good enough unless someone thinks everyone that backed into something wanted to back into something. They backed into something because hey didn't look, their "gut" forgot what was around them or they didn't use their mirrors.

 

Yeah, cows aint dumb... They know when something isn't right. Them that I had on that load was bawlin something fierce by the time we got to a spot to turn around. Kinda funny when you think about it... Many many times that I was doing something that wasnt quite right yhe cattle I was workingin with tried to tell me, now that I think back on my years of cowboying.

 

I have never been to Pocatello ID but have driven by it hundreds of times

 

Aside from a couple good bars and restaurants... The only thing your missing is one of the best Computerized Machining Technology vocational programs in the country. But other than that its a typical college town.

 

When I was alittle shaver thats the 1st thing I got taught was a Good Ma ma cow will tell you when things aren't right learn their language and you'll be fine.. To this day when I stop to fuel or check them if their talking something's wrong...and I better find it & fix it before we move on
They are also the best weather forecasters I know..

 

Cows always get to milling about, a bit nervouse like, before a storm.

 

Trust in the process and keep documenting your journey...

However, if your not feeling this trainer please by all means fire her because you're the future product...

You shouldn't lose your time put in so far and another trainer would probably love to make their bonuses off your established credits already...

Stay professional and Safe Trucker...
