    Well week 1 of class is done in over with in Richfield. In my opinion it has been the best week in my life because I have been taught to drive a big rig by a very cool and laid back instructor. This week in class we was in class for I believe two days out on the road and back yesterday and today. It was very fun. I was a little nervous toward the morning hours and toward the afternoon it started letting up. I surprised myself to be quite honest with ya. All and all looking forward to class this coming week and just kinda wondering what Chris at MTI Richfield will throw our way.

    Thats all for now will keep you updated next week gonna lay back and relax now. BIGPAPI

    there 4 of us in the class and the weather varies. This morning it snowed yesterday was pretty nice it just depends. When you come in on march 12 don't come in thinking about it just come in and learn from what the instructor says. Don't be worried either because it doesnt help I was real nervous coming in and now i still get a little nervous but it will go away. Just make sure that this is right for you and that this is what you really want to do.

    hey samurai thanks its has really been a great experience it is tough since i have a wife and two kids at home I have finished the school as of yesterday gotta got back Monday to take the drug screen and do some more paperwork. Then wait for tuesday when the drug screen comes back then I get to go home for a few days to spend time with my wife and kids before the trainer picks me up that sunday. I am really looking forward to it and getting to see the country side and I enjoy very much traveling and driving. Are you a student getting ready to come in or have you been with the company for a while. If you are a student coming in don't sweat it just relax and enjoy the experiences that will come in contact with as it is quiet the experience being behind the wheel of that large of a vehicle. Overall I have had a blast all keep in touch as I will try to post more of my experiences have a great day

    Week one of class finished. So far everyone in class is kool and I get along w/ everyone, and I must say all of the Millis drivers I have encountered at the school/terminal have been very curtious and helpful w/ any questions and I'm happy to be their entertainment as they watch us new ppl putt around the yard.
