    That is minor in comparison to what I'm having issues, sure it's gross that he pee's in the yard, but that doesn't effect my living safety. My road instructor during school, was a male, but he was awsome, and taught very well. I put either in my request for a mentor since I didn't want to wait a long time for one.
    You may be amazed, he claimed he saw bigfoot, and some other creature crossing the road. Yet somehow he didn't see the other animals that night. Go figure.
    I have no clue
    My thing is that he's even sleeping when I stop and have to back into a space.

    He is to be back tomorrow, with a PTA of 6am. But I don't know that he'll hold up to that as he dumped me here in Harlingen, so that he could drive to houston. This will be my 3rd night here after just getting on the truck thursday night.

    I had heard about that.

    He may have given it, but it's in my driver manual in the truck.

    Your post is fine. Thank you for helping with a little bit of insight. I'll claim that I'm sick early in the morning if I need to to buy time, to talk to marty.

    Just got done talking with injun, and she really helped to get me straight on which issues were major, of which there are several, and which are minor. So I must say thank you, and I really appreciate it.

    Injun;...ummmm, oohhh, ummmmmm
    Sailing...Well here is one thing.....
    Injun;...ummmm, ohhhh, ummmmmmm

    so on and so forth............:biggrin_25523: :biggrin_2559: :biggrin_25521:

    Hey, I needed help figuring it out. So it's all good :biggrin_2559:

    Now I have a game plan set up for tomorrow to get things situated. Thanks, Yall.

    I'll go ahead and call dispatch for the student sign in. Then leave the rest for tomorrow.

    Silent, you've been given good advice, if you don't feel safe then find a reason to hold things up like advised. Otter and Injun can help you take care of things, but just don't let an office person who has no clue make you feel pressured to go back into an unsafe situation
