    Today and yesterdays training went well. Yesterday was an early day. Cornell is pretty much trying to get chapters 7&11 and 2&3 embedded in our heads. Did paper work. Drug screen and all the fun stuff Already. I just hate being in this boring hotel with nothing to do... Ontl th other hand The hotel is very nice. Also got some time in on the Treq... They have spoke on lease but cornel said they wont really start pushing it until next week. And yes i know.....
    I WILL NOT LEASE

    Travis when you are out with your trainer(coach) get in as much work on that treq as you can. 70 hours sounds like a lot but it is not. You have to always be aware of your duty status. You can always contact me if you have any questions.

    I will, thanks for the info. Cornell reminds us everyday that if we are not on driving, pre trip, post trip or fueling. Make sure we are off duty. Because we are wasting or 70.. I know once i get on my own its going to be more nerve wrecking then anything so i will keep in touch with you.

    Good afternoon everyone! It has been a busy time here lately and I have lost track of where everyone is. Be sure to check in and I will give you a head's up if I see anything online that may affect you.

    Once again I have had a flooded laundry room. Number one plumber never actually fixed the problem and I was finally forced to call someone out from Springfield. Hopefully it is now taken care of. I try to deal with local businesses as much as possible but am finding too many of them that are more than willing to take advantage of you when they realize your husband isn't home. I have a neighbor that is always willing to help .....but the King does not like that idea! :biggrin_25524:

    The ground was hard and it was cold outside so I only got Number One Plumber's body buried about 2 feet under .....I thought if that wasn't deep enough that the bobcat and coyotes would take care of it.:yes2557: I don't think anyone will miss him .......:biggrin_2559:
