I've yet to ever parallel park. Just like math class, you waste your time doing something you'll never use in life. I hate parallel parking.
Ummmm you use math every day! You figure out miles and gallons and weights and well you get the point! Maybe I would have agreed if you said algebra!
I think the math he was talking about is algebra and calculus and trigonometry. Just about useless to average people.
Hey, that's awesome Six! Congrats!!!!
No matter how confident you are that you'll pass the exams and get that CDL it's still a massive relief when you actually do it. Because all that time you're studying and learning how to drive you have it in the back of your mind that your career will be done before it even gets started without that CDL. When you get it, it's like, "Oh Thank God!!!!"
I actually had to re-take the driving test. The first time they told me to change from right to left lane. I looked and there was a vehicle in the left lane but I had plenty of room. I turned on my signal and started the lane change. The guy in the four wheeler gunned it and when the examiner looked in my mirror she said I didn't yield. I don't know what I could of done if this a hole floored it to try to get around me and closed the gap. That is an auto fail. Live and learn I guess. The second time I did great, the examiner said he would hire me..lol My only gripe is he dinged me for driving under the speed limit. I was doing 45 in a 55. I did this on purpose because of a lot of snow and ice. I thought driving for the road conditions was the smart option. I felt that empty trailer slide a few times and I wasn't a fan of that. I can't wait to get to work though.

Congrats Kip. Glad to have met you at school. I passed my test last Friday and I know what you mean about the ice and snow. During the emergency pull off, the trailer started to slide sideways on the ice. I heard the examiner didn't have anybody else do the pull off that day because of the icy conditions. Hope to be on the road soon.
