Starting the Journey!!

Day two of training. First day was filling out paperwork and meeting everyone. I will say that the staff and employees at Jim Palmer are amazing and make you feel like more than just a number. Today we went to the DMV and took our permit tests. Passed all three!! One obstacle out of the way!! This afternoon we bobtailed all around Missoula. Very interesting. Didn’t grind them too bad and got decent at double clutching. Tomorrow more driving with a trailer. To be continued.....

Starting the Journey!!

Made it into Missoula late last night. Have a day to recharge and get ready. As I sit here thinking, the excitement and nervousness sets in. I guess it's normal but a little un berving to say the least. Will update as the week goes on!!

Are my expectations realistic??

I am leaving a job where I currently bring home $2700 a month. I am scheduled to start training the first of next month with a company that starts out at 40 cpm in the reefer division. Am I setting myself up for failure thinking I will be making the same amount of money. Please give me your honest opinion. Thanks folks!!
