    I had my pre-trip and road test today, Tom is an easy going guy.
    I sat down with Paul, Debra and Kay, very professional people.
    They wanna make you feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
    Just do what you know you can do.
    The physical is what took the longest time.
    As Matt and Tom had mentioned, plan on most of the day.
     
    drozzer69, Woodenleg and TomOfTx Thank this.

    I am thinking. Around the first week in July they only do it on the start of the pay period and there on the same as my current employer

    I would say probably figure either the end of June or beginning of July.

    Congrats buckskin! The hard part is over, now you just have to have patience. Woodenleg, good luck tomorrow!
     
    buckskin76 and Woodenleg Thank this.

    My wife just found this site today for me, wish I'd have known about it 3 months ago! I am also taking a pre trip and road test this week. This is a question about the pre trip. When testing the air brakes, do they want you to chock the tires and check the air brakes that way or do they just want us to bleed the brakes down until the warning buzzer goes off? Also, when we latch on to the trailer do they want us to give a tug test? I can't find the answers to these questions anywhere else. I hope this is not in the wrong spot, I am not very familiar with message boards. Any answers would be appreciated!
