    Im working on it spot, I have a blog setup, on Wordpress that im going to be updating as much as I can day to day. So far im impressed. The info while alot is not mind numbing. We are starting from the last lesson for the guys finishing today. I actually just got told im free for the rest of the day. (waiting for other guy to get back from pee test so we can watch more of the movies). I want to maybe do a bunch of those tonight and handle the quizes so we are not wasting good learning time in the class watching videos.

    So far everyone ive met here has been down to earth and straight forward. I am going to start bobtailing around the yard tonight to get the hang of the 10's, and just to get a feel for the truck again since its been aboug 3 weeks since ive last sat in one. Anyway blog link here... http://deserted1.wordpress.com

    Nice blog, deserted....I had what looks to be the same view from my room..which one are you in? I was in 6A. Had the room to myself as there was only 3 of us, so we got private rooms..pretty cool!
    Anyways, I bookmarked your blog page so I can check up on it

    Hopefully the DVD's work better than when we tried to watch them....we ended up using my laptop to watch them. The last couple I watched by myself on my own schedule early in the morning in the driver's lounge while having coffee before class. As for names and lessons, I don't think there is a problem with telling everyone what you studied on a particular day....

    Since there was only two of us in orientation, they sent the movies and the dvd player back to the motel with us since we shared a room. I'm on my first week here. I'm sitting in the Conover terminal waiting for them to get my load back to Kittles in Fishers, IN. I was just there monday morning but atleast I alread know how to get there. Training was good and I havent done anything terribly stupid, except getting turned around a few times and having to turn around in some tight spots that I probally shouldnt have turned around in. If anyone every delivers to Kittles they are very good there. Got me in and out fast, but its a driver assist unload. All he had me do is get the furniture turned around facing the right way so he could dolly it.

    Later.
