Good to read that today's The Big Day.
Don't overthink it. Remember your training and everything you practiced. Check both mirrors often. Envision the backing movements before you execute.
I've been following your diary...wishing you all the best!

I PASSED !!!! I am now a truck driver!!! Had a little hiccup with the offset, zero pointed the 90 and did pretty.good on the road test. Ultimately I passed!!!
Now on to phase 2 with my driver trainer. That should be end of next week I hope. Money is tight at home and I need to hit on the road asap. But I am gonna be truck driver!!!
I will continue updating as I go along. Thank you everyone for the kind words of encouragement.

What are your main takeaways from the school? Where do you connect with your mentor, at the school or at the terminal closest to your home?
Terminal:
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
Bingo, Dingo! Great job under less than ideal circumstances, you adapted and overcame!

TEST DAY!!!
It has been several days since I posted last. Not much in the way of deviation from the routine. Pretrip, backing, driving. Pretrip, driving, backing. Did get to bump a dock. That was fun.
Test today 0730. Temp is 12 degrees with winds of 15 or so. Cold!!!
I am a little nervous, but in a good way. Excited to say the least. I checked out of the hotel so no going back!!!
And here we go.
