Roehl trainee starting 7/6/2015
Very tired today I need to get to bed earlier...breakfast today was different from yesterday i had banana waffle cheese omelet and sausage patty...we waited fir shuttle and off to school we went....we started off filling out our log books today and watched a few roehl safety videos...after we went to lunch we went outside and was divided into 2 groups 3 for us and 2 for the other truck and instructor went over pretrip and in cab inspection....he then started up the truck and we went out on the road..he drove around for a bit until we made it to gas station and took a break...we got back in the truck and went back to the yard showing how to smoothly shift and downshift I'm thinking I can't wait to start driving...we get back to the yard and was told ok let's switch seats..so one of my classmate grabbed the wheel and we were told to drive up to 7th gear and make turns in 5th gear so gotta downshift....now I'm nervous....my classmate made it look so easy..after he was done it was my turn...uggghhhhh I felt sooooooooo new I haven't seen a wheel since 1st week of june....I started getting somewhat comfortable then came time to downshift newer truck so don't have to rev so high he calls it burping...it was hit or miss today lol..but I started getting the dance of down shifting...cant wait until tomorrow...we were reminded when in truck must bring log book..I've never uncoupled so i volunteered..I dropped landing gear and was told leave one inch clearance to give platform to move away from kingpin in the right angle...I then unhooked the pressure lines and electrical lines got in the truck and pulled off but was told I went too fast..don't want to drop trailer that fast...exciting day...went to Dennys got our food now about to go to bed at 6:00 lol hope to do better tomorrow...instructors say we should have our drug test results by late morning tomorrow and that they not waiting for hair test which sucks since they scalped my head smh and should be able to go on the road after lunch.. excitING day today :)

Chicago area help with schools!
Roehl and prime are good schools... prime pays you 700 a week during training.. roehl puts u in a nice hotel and gives u 3 meals a day. you are actually hired in when you touch down for training for roehl.... u just have to finish the course
