<p>[QUOTE="Kennyworth67, post: 12240685, member: 230624"]Thanks, again! Your posts have really made me chill about it all. I guess it all comes down to who trains you. Crap in- crap out. Good info in- good practices out. I really felt I had hit the jackpot when I met the guy who would train me how to drive back in 2001 - I was right out of a mega school. My trainer was a cool old guy with 32 years experience and the patience of a Saint. He reminded me a lot of my Uncles in the NYPD and FDNY. He was a no bs kind of guy who told you where the bear - well you know. I really liked his method of teaching. He taught me how to float gears on the Grapevine. Anytime we were stopped for more than 2 hours, guess who put out cones and had me doing backing practice? The only thing I didn't like was that he made me listen to Rush Limbaugh every day. Lol. He was a great guy and an awesome trainer. He was getting up there even when he trained me and I'm sure he's dead now. Just the same, I say to him- thanks for everything, Larry! You remind me of him. Your language and calm demeanor. So, that's a big compliment in my book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
