Ok, sounds like a solid plan.. we look forward to following you with the journey.

I say that because you can go to a school sponsored training, mostly free and still have the ability to use ur gi bill later if you want to go back and pick up trade or whatanot....esp now with gi bill for life, it shouldn't expire in 10 years... assuming that will be retroactive.

And, to be honest, I have heard almost no complaints about company sponsored training on here. For a few companies they only require a 10 month commitment after. Need a solid job anyway.

Ohh snap...

Being in the military, I would encourage you to save your gi bill and go thru company sponsored training.

Don't beat yourself up too much. We all make mistakes from time to time, and learn from them, whether it is professional or personal. I think the fact that your company has not sent you directly back to the terminal, should give you a little assurance. I know that when I have had close calls with my 4 wheeler, I am always a little more cautious after. So just remember, what you learn from it and stay positive.

Most will tell you company sponsored training is the way to go, plus other than the 1 year (ish) commitment after completing training there will be little to no cost for getting your CDL.

Best of luck.

So where are you with Schnieder now? Are you with a trainer OTR?

Chris

Is that Urine testing only question?

Good call. I would rather be early and rested than last and spent..... Esp, if you are taking the bus, and have to rely on a schedule that could get you delayed to the following week....

Congrats on the first week plus of training...

Congrats on the CDL.

Chris

Congrats!!

Those all seem reasonable Rainy..lol

Hey Don

I am sure that kind of frustration is across the board at all carriers. I feel like the more I read, and "kinda" understand, that managing the clock will probably be my greatest challenge since there are certain aspects you can't personally control. Stay Safe..

WOW, that truck is disgusting. Yeah, I would show up early if need to be to NOT get that truck. Some people suck. As far as the big fella sweating so bad, I think you hit it on the head.

What are the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion?

•You may have heavy sweating. •You may feel faint, dizzy, weak, or tired. •You may have a headache. •You may breathe fast or feel like your heart is beating faster than normal. •You may have muscle cramps. •You may have nausea or vomiting.

I bet this guy took all weekend to start feeling better....Hope he is back to work today.

Safe Travels. Chris
