    Jesus, again the anti-climax? First ORG and now Mark?

    I just found this thread today and the quote is way back, but to set the record straight for anyone who comes after me:

    I don't know where you went to school, but at the school I will be attending, they train you on both empty and "weighted" trailers.

    BYW, I'm pretty much set to begin with my school on June 4th (as I posted in my blog) so I'll be starting my own newbie thread here soon! ( I tried to once before and got bashed, but now I feel the naysayers can KMA)

    Honestly, I may not know trucking, but I do know the internet (internet addict) and, barring no connection, which I do understand, there's no excuse for not popping in to say hi...or in some cases, goodbye--it's just good internet protocol, and providing I have a connection, and I don't get "banned or retired", I won't let y'all drop like this...It's just bad manners.

    It is kinda sad or as you said anti-climatic to follow some of these folks for months and then .............................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

    It would be nice even if they just said okay I got really busy and don't have time to post any more but it's all working out, or I quit and went back to being the CEO of Starbank or something.

    With the nice weather I know I will be on line less and less and outside more and more but do try to catch up every 1-2 or 3 days.


    anti-climatic- word of the day.:biggrin_2556:

    I followed ORG's thread then I read his friend Chris's thread and now I finished Markus's thread and all just dropped off the face of the earth....well my computer. As with the others I've been entertained, educated and blessed by reading them all. I wish they would all return and tell us what's going on with them but most of all I wish them safety and success!

    Hello out there. I must apologize for dropping out of sight. It got to a point where people were treating me like some sort of authority..and i got spooked. Yes, Im still driving...pretty much loving it. I choose to stay out about 3 weeks...the get home for 3 or so.
    Still with Schneider... They treat me well. I'm not afraid of the truck or trailer anymore...except on ice...and high winds
     
    KansasWhirl, Wedge, Hitman and 2 others Thank this.
