    Nice discription of memphis, LOL you are correct they always on the first 48, I tell drivers the same thing about miami, that is why swift don't allow drivers to leave their trucks unattended in miami. People think its all sunshine, palm trees and beautiful beaches but that is on the other side of the bridge.

    Good Luck BBM. I anticipate to start with SWIFT after the first of the year after I graduate from CDL school. I'm sure if you listen and learn and build on that knowledge you should have no problem. GOOD LUCK

    Good Luck BigBus, I am supposed to get my CDL this Thursday from DMV. I am at the Swift Academy in San Antonio. Instructors are great and I should pass. If I don't I am a dummy. They have close to 100% pass rate from the academy.

    LOL! Somebody's gotta tell the man the truth. He'll have to go thru Raleigh to get to Millington, so he'll see for himself.

    I have my Class A, but am doing the school, because I haven't drove for over ten years and when I did it was just for a short time, I felt it better to go back to school and relearn the skills so I can be a safer driver.
     
    Lokix Thanks this.

    Well maybe I will see ya when I get there on the 2nd of jan. Got the d o t physical. Don't really understand why the medical report and the medical certificate though. Which one does swift need. The card or the papers? Take the written on Monday. Omg bbm, I felt like I was tryna be a diesel mechanic while studying the book. But I know it now, back and forth page for page! Ain't got time to half ### the test. I know that u r gonna do great! As for the locals...from what I heard u aren't gonna have a lot of downtime at millington. I am so super nervous anxious excited also.
     
    BigBusMan Thanks this.
