starting orientation

well we came home for a week break for the hollidays and man i needed it been running realy hard ffirst week and 3200 miles later had to do a reset had 2 hrs left on my 70 so ya that was fun but got much needed rest so far ive been to ottowa il to detroit mi to clinton mass to clumbus ohio to dallas tx to sacramento ca and back home in all 13 days and 7500 miles later i cant wait to get this 240 hrs done and get my own truck i cant sleep with that #### thing moving and all that noise so i got ear plugs and put those it no more noise now how do i get use to the moving truck i dont know but ill figure it out some how mentor is kool we get along realy well and i think that is a very good thing his truck is a 05 freightliner columbia with the green dragon on the side only one ive seen so far seen a orange one but no green one so if you see it in a truck stop and theres a big white guy and a little mexican guy its us come on over and say hi has anyone been to the cambels soup factory in sacramento ca befor how do you like the pentagon security check just to get your load that place sucks

 

well i get there and it says pull on to scale 0ne so i did got out and a gard comes out walks around the truck and looks inside the cab and the trailer then tells me to drop the trailer out back in the d section and come back to scale two so i did then he tells me to go out back to shipping and reciving and check with them so back out back i go and go to s and r and they tell me to go pick up the trailer and head over to scale three so i did security comes out and checks all around the truck again and does the paper work and off i go in all took me about a hour to do all this just for soup wow i cant wait to see a high value load so far costco seems good to deal with a t call loads walgreens suck they take 3 hours to unload and refuse damaged products for you to take back but thats what i have dealt with so far

 

ya 3hrs i think i was letting it bother me becouse we were on a hot load after that and the clock was ticking down and after that load we were home for a week for forth of july so here i sit enjoying the time off and getting my rest cant wait to get my truck

 

whats up guys ya im still alive been pounding the pavement hard and racking up those miles and hrs only 62.5 hrs left and im done ive been i think every where posible and then again loving lousiana for some reason seeing annd the swamp down there and the people fishing all the time makes me want to move down there and the people are far the nices people ive dealt with so far. we got back in sunday for a little break and to deal with a issue i had acouple days ago i ended up taking out a traffic light in minneapollis after the mentor was telling me i was good and clear so ya not to happy about that but in all training is going well and i can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel
