    So far it is Unkl L... my trainer is a complete pig and a bit of a jack ###, but he has a nice side to him and does know how to drive, so I am trying to take the good with the bad. Just had my third shower kn two weeks... his second, that is a HUGE issue with me, but this will be over in about three weeks.

    How is it going with you?

    My 5 week trainer was the same way. trash all over the truck, crap all over the dashboard, showered every 5 or 6 days if he needed it or not. Went a week and a half between showers when he dropped me off at the yard. To make it worse he wouldnt even brush his teeth between showers.

    I had the same attitude as you. Just bear with it. Its only 5 weeks. Luckily my finish trainer was much better...

    I am always surprised that Lysol is not heavily invested in the trucking industry. :puke:

    Well I just did a phone interview with Wendy in recruiting and I am pre-hired to start orientation on Aug 5th. She said I can take a plane but they will only reimburse me up to $200.00, that's still worth it to me. Maryland to Texas in a Greyhound bus no thanks.
