    You want it back??? :biggrin_2553: Thought you'd be cute and I wouldn't catch it huh!

    It seems that for the last two classes everyone at the Ramada got sick.
    Hopefully we will be out of here with our trainers tomorrow. I want to get this 28 days over with as soon as possible.

    I really liked her blog through the whole training course. I really hope she has been busy trucking over the road. I can't imagine her giving up too easily, she seemed like a fighter to me. Maybe that why I'm an optimist and kinda have a glass half full outlook on life.

    I'm praying she is alright, I was really hoping she had some juicy updates from the road on how driving with her treainer worked out.

    I plan on starting in Oct 5 down at the fontana terminal.

    She said in earlier post the WiFi was spotty and maybe she just hasn't had time to update!

    She may be still training, training period is 28 days but the miles are 14500 so maybe she needed to stay out a little longer!

    So they lost a good number during the background check and the physical. Why did they lose so many for the physical? Anyone have specifics?

    What I'd be worried about the most is quitting my job to go to school only to be booted out the first day for something and then not only being jobless but having to pay your own way back home. I support myself.

    Some had Felonies they didn't mention on the app, some had other tickets they didn't mention, some failed the Pee test and some had high blood pressure.
