    Today at school we did part of our field test and I passed with out any problem I was so excited. Tomorrow its pretrip, coupling and uncoupling and road test I have been driveing well and am not to worried about that part but the pretrip still works me a little but today we had time to practice on one of the trucks and I feel a little more comfortable. If I pass next Sunday we will gradute and I will take a week off to settle things here at home and then I will be going to orientation. I am looking forward to see you guys and gals on the road soon I hope.

    I passed all the test with out any problem yesterday at school and so today I went to DMV and got my lic. I am so happy I passed but at the same time nervous about starting over in life.

    Congratulations!!!

    See? Practice works!

    You now have a license to LEARN and make money in the process. Use this time wisely, learn as much as you can from your trainer and mentors you find along the way and you will be just fine.

    Welcome to the extended family that is "trucking." We have nice folks, and sad folks, and happy folks, and demented ones too! Regardless of our state of mind we are all out here trying to make a living and so that makes us family.

    Help each other when you can and ask for help when you need it. The good will you give will return to you tenfold.:biggrin_25525:

    Thanks you guys. I plan on learning as much as I can from my trainer when I get there. I hope she doesn't get tired of me asking alot of questions. I plan on going to orientation on the 28th if I can get somethings done I have to do here first. Orientation is 4 days and then I should be able to head out with the trainer they said I could go home between orientation and training if I need to and then the trainer could pick me up near my house but I am thinking if shes is ready for me when orientation is over I would rather get started on my training because I will not be makeing any money sitting at home. But if shes not ready I will go home until she is.
