    NYDMV was the bane of my existence until about half an hour ago... Now NYDOT Enforcement is. I respect people trying to do their jobs but don't get under my truck and start yelling commands with engines running on both side of me.... I can't hear you. Then he told me to release my parking brakes, no problem. He didn't say anything about trailer air supply. Two different buttons, dude. But I do appreciate being threatened with "one more chance" if I don't listen to him. Oh well, I passed so he can screw off. Give a guy with a handlebar mustache a little bit of power and this is what happens.

    I had a similar experience with NYDOT. Dude just about jumped through my window to grab my log book when I pulled in. Then yelled and screamed under my truck. Another DOT guy had to come over and translate.

    Thanks for this excellent thread and all the training information you've provided!
    I'm beginning training in January and I'm concerned about the pre-screening.
    I'm a 49 year old smoker and I would appreciate it if you could tell me what the most physically demanding exercises I should expect. I'm a little worried about passing this part of the training, though I've been exercising regularly since I was confirmed for my January start date.
    Thanks!

    Does Roehl hire right out of their school? If so do you have to wait till you finish the school to apply or apply prior?

    They do hire out of their school. When you talk to the recruiter just let them know that you would like to work for them also. You will have to fill out the application along with your school application, along with a few other things. Give them a call, Im sure they can answer your questions better than I.
    www.goroehl.com Plenty of info here too..
     
    dark_reaper Thanks this.

    Thanks bro, I have the applications printed already. I would like to go to my local community college and where the campus is located, I would have to get a new vehicle and go part time where I currently work at. Only other way I could get to that school cheaper is by renting a plane to fly there since it is at a airport. But thanks again, ill give Roehl a call at work today.
