Newbies questions

Hi guys .I'm on my 4th week alone finally.I went through 2 and a half months at commercial saftey college taking the tractor trailer internship , passed my road test and got my class 1 with a manual transmission. I Completed 8 weeks of inelternship with the company I'm working for , that consisted of driving 5 days a week with a coach/ instructor sitting in the passenger seat while doing P & D.
now I'm on the road this my 4th week.So far so good .

There was slot of things I learned along the way .I would say even more things that I didn't learn as it seems there's much more that you learn as you go ,and some that I forgot lol.

I find it difficult to get any questions answered while working, so I hoped maybe I might find a few veteran drivers on here that might not kind answering the odd question I have . I know alot of guys that are new or newer don't seem to like taking advice or even admitting that they don't know the answer to something . I'm not that way , I'm all ears . I like hearing from you fellas ,whether it's critiszm (good or bad ) a good story or a Dirty joke lol.

One thing I was wondering is do you only slide the bogies or the 5th wheel when your over the legal weight on whatever axles are over weight .
Or is there other tell tale signs that they should be slid ahead or back .
I ask because I was heavy last night , and there was alot of weight on the drives and it was extremely floaty in the front end.and I don't know what's normal when it comes to handling and being heavy like that .

And when I ask someone about how much weight you can have on each section of the truck I've gotten a bunch of half assed aswers and nothing definitive .I don't know If these guys really are unsure or just #### me around kind of thing .

Anyway I appreciate any help or advice

 

I'm based out of moncton but I run NS and NB.

Thank you very much sir I appreciate it
