    I was worried about mine too. 136/90 and he said good to go for 2years. Had me touch my toes and squat one time. listened to my heart, had me breath in and out, open wide and say AAAAAHHHHHH then drop em and turn head and cough. 5 mins max in exam room after 1 hour wait to get in. WELL WORTH IT! Good luck Friday.

    Thank you! When did you go to RDTC? I heard Winter is rough but July August may be HOTTT. Hope my trainer likes the air on cold at night.

    Great job Chris, I passed my 3 tests needed for the class A and also passed tankers. I plan to take doubles and triples Tuesday since it's free then pay the $29 to get my permit. I signed my contracts and mailed back to Kim and should set up a start date July 29th or first 2 mondays in August.

    When out on Phase II with your trainer, how to you take food with you? Do most just plan to eat out during this phase?

    Boy I didn't even think about food. But I probably should start. I think I am going to try and bring my own food that way I know its somewhat healthy.

    Exactly. I know about getting a cooler once you are on your own but being with a trainer in their truck I bet there's not a lot of room for stuff.

    Passed all my written tests today except HAZMAT. Have my permit now and my DOT card. Should have a start date by the end of the week. Looks like July19, Aug 5th or 12th. How did your tests go?
