Ready or Not Here I come!!

This 90 degree ally dock is kicking my butt..anyone have any tips that will help?

 

Ok, so the 90 alley docked kicked my arse all day..gary the instructor finally came over and reminded me how to drive a truck and after that I got it down, he can come off a little harsh when he's instructing you, but I think he's a big softee underneath, the instructors really know their stuff but they don't hold your hand, and the expect you to listen and learn..I. don't know how they do it..they have the patience of saints..lol..we got out a couple hours early tonight and we get to sleep in till about 7am tomorrow, this whole week has been a blur..I feel like I've gone for a ride in the washing machine..next week is night shift on the range..I'm pretty nervouse about that, since I didn't get a chance to do offsets today the first time will be in the dark

 

That's exactally how gary had me do it..and the starting location is key.

 

Td to it..and of course its suppose to be 60oday we were in the classroom again, it was long and not very eventfull, took a very easy test on Log books and HOS rules, and then did some map reading stuff while the instructor went over our logs with us...starting tomorrow we go on night shift, I cant say im looking forward to it, of course its suppose to be 60 and sunny all week during the day but 33degrees at night while we are out there, I suppose it doesnt matter much, just gives us more incentive to keep our butts up in a truck..i want to get my 90 and offset by wednesday and try and test out...this week has gone by very fast its been one long blur, and I have to say I havent been this sore and tired in a long time..This place is definitaly not a walk in the part, but I will make it..it has been a learning experiance for sure.
