So my bus was to leave at 935 pm. At 1033 they showed up and told me they was full and I had to wait for the next bus that leaves at 445 am. I hope that one is not full.

Tonight is the night. I get on the greyhound and spend 13 hours to get to Memphis. I'm taking my kids out to dinner and spending time with them cuz I know I wont see them for the next 3 weeks. I'm excited but it hasn't hit me that I'm leaving yet that will probably happen when I get on the greyhound.

My home town library offers audio book downloads. You just need a library card and you pick your books off of a very large list that they have available online. The download is good for 2 weeks. You don't have to go to the library you "shop" online and no late fees. I put them on my tablet and used an aux cable to send it to my radio in my car. (back when I drove cab)

Thats so great to hear! Keep us posted.

Congrats! What company are you working for?

Swift

I will be leaving Mothers day weekend for Tennessee to start training with Swift. Im so excited. I have a lot to do in the next week and a half. Wish me luck!

good afternoon ladies, ok sooooo I've applied with Swift, Ive taken some of the online tests here and Swift has sent me online classes. I have now read what you are saying I need to bring and I am now feeling like I want to throw up lol ok now my brother use to drive truck, he suggested getting a booney hat so I dont end up with oil etc in my hair when having to get under the truck, also, I saw somewhere not to wear sweat pants however I was thinking a mix of jeans and I have they are danskin pants, they are long, comfortable like sweats but dont get baggy, would that work? also, my son is a Marine and I have tshirts in abundance with things pertaining to that, are those acceptable? I wont bring my "girly" tops, which I have in abundance but as far as tshirts go all I really have are Marine based stuff, I am a supportive and proud mom lol I have slightly longer than shoulder length hair that I would really prefer not to cut, any ideas?

Hello I just finshed the Swift classed and will be headed to Tennese soon. I start classes on May 13th. Def do the training class on here. It is more detailed than Swifts.

Good Luck

I got my date to start my training. I will be headed to Tennessee Mothers day weekend and will start on Monday. I'm over the top excited with 1000 things running in my head. This next week and a half will be the longest and shortest week of my life.

Well, I'm flying out to Springfield, MO for Orientation/Training/Boot Camp this coming Sunday. Having not traveled outside of the southeast very much, and never during any season other than the middle of summer I am wondering if I should pack a coat or jacket or sweatshirt, something just in case I hit a cold spot with my trainer? Or do I just save the space since there's two of us on the truck for the next 8+ weeks and take my chances? I have one medium duffel bag with 7 pairs of pants (5 jeans, 2 khaki tactical pants leftover from my LEO days)7 polo shirts and 7 undershirts (white t shirts) along with underwear and socks. This will last me two weeks on the road between laundry (which I am assuming is at the owner of the truck I am training in's discretion. This all fits in the medium duffel, maybe 3/4ths the size of the old style Army duffel bags. Plus I have my toothbrush, soap, shaving goods, etc. What says ye? Too much? Not enough? Help!!!!!!!!!!!! oh and thanks for any feedback ;)

A hoodie would be a good idea. I live in Springfield and its 85 and sunny today but calling for snow Thursday night. If you don't like the Missouri weather wait 5 minutes it will change.
