Profile For Jenny D.

I am a CDL-A student almost ready to test out for my license. Sorry for my long post in advance but need to give full pic here. I’m not training with one of the mega carriers like Prime or Swift, it’s a local program. We were randomly assigned an instructor once we got to backing and driving. They hired a new teacher onto their staff, we’re his first class, and lucky me (not) was assigned to him, myself and another student driver. The other drivers in our class got assigned to a more senior instructor by luck. I started off having issues with this instructor when it came to backing. I figured out and passed all of my other backing maneuvers and then here comes the 90. His way of teaching is a cluster f***. Finally I had to go to the top main teacher and tell her after a week with this guy trying to learn the 90 his way, this isn’t working he doesn’t know what he’s doing, he keeps changing the setup markers he wants me to hit on my truck and trailer going into the 90. The senior instructor finally this morning showed me his way, practiced 4 times total, tested and passed the 5th time. Next today is perimeter driving, there is a road around the entire school probably 2 miles long total, setup kinda like the real road with signs and what not. Along the curves there are these big rocks. I was practicing and did the course probably 10 times successfully. On my last pass he had started taking to me about where I think I’m gonna apply. Doesn’t matter right now in this moment, my first time ever behind the wheel actually driving this truck. One of my last turns I didn’t go high enough around the curve and my passenger back tandem tire pops up about a foot on this rock. He had me so distracted answering him, I caught it and backed up and went around. He had me park in the truck lot to check for any damage. Thankfully there wasn’t any. We get out of the truck since it’s end of day anyways and I tell one of my classmates in the other group I kinda hit a rock trying to lighten it up but I was so worried. So my instructor tells me I need to note this on your file and I’m like why, then and he asks the other teacher can you come look at this tire real quick with me. We’re all back in the clsssroom ready to be told go home for the day. He comes in and immediately I ask how’s the tire worried I’m gonna get kicked from the program. I’ve got everything riding on this program. My boyfriend is a veteran driver and we’re gonna go team somewhere together, but this jacka** teacher comes back in the room and I ask is everything ok, said it’s fine don’t worry about it. In my gut I’m like is he trying to CYA since he already kinda looks like an idiot that he couldn’t teach backing now this he shouldn’t of been taking to me about anything while I’m just learning to drive. What’s the worst that could come of this? I was the driver and should have caught that curve that I was too shallow but it’s his job to say hey you’re too close, I have a feeling he’ll try to CYA and blame me
