Wish Me Luck
well, I haven't been on the Planet as much as I used to. It's been a busy month. I attended a Truck Driving school over the course of the past month and finished the school last Friday. After 15 years in telecom, I have had enough. Tired of the constant layoffs/project-based work....and actually grew to hate the actual work when it was there.

I have my Class A CDL test tomorrow morning at the DMV. I feel pretty confident. Others in my class who were at the same skill level as myself all passed their tests Monday and today. They all said that basically the 'tests' we were given at the school, were much more stringent than the DMV test - essentially, if you did well on the tests at school, you should have no problem at the DMV.

I've got a few pre-hire letters with companies; 2 of which will have me home every weekend. Another will have me home 3 days for 11 days out. My goal is to treat this upcoming year as an extension of my school/training, and try to get at least 12 months experience then start scouting 'local' jobs here in KC with a more predictable schedule, and hopefully decent hourly pay.

Congrats, Dayze!

Good luck on your test and subsequent job search. I'm sure you'll do fine.

I figured if I'm not going to see my wife anyway with such a schedule, I might as well try to make more money. The apprenticeship would've been a hell of a pay cut. Almost impossible, for that matter.

after a year, I might look at that company again etc.


here in KS, the backing maneuvers you have 3. Straight line backing, off-set, and either 90 degree Alley dock OR a parallel park on either the drivers or passengers side. I feel pretty good about all of them. Planning on just taking a deep breath, taking my time (15 minutes per maneuver), and remembering the fundamentals. Hopefully it goes well.
Lol, feel real good. It's different when that trooper is grading you. You'll be fine hoss. Huge commitment if you've got kids. I hope they all know you're trying to do right by them and that you're missing them as much as they're missing you. It's a hell of a life, and fun as hell if you have the right personality.

I'd be doing it had I not tripped into my current job. My wife and I at one time were planning on team driving. What a ****ing life that would've been.

The money just makes it impossible to consider. Example: Dude next door to me works in my industry, same position I just took, with a different corporation here in town. Dude just bought a brand new ****ing Lambo a couple of days ago. That right there was the best thing he could've done for me. Built in motivation every day when I leave for work.

Lol anyways, sorry, my ADD kicked in there. You're going to do great, and you'll fall in love with it.

Have you decided if the wife is going to ride with you, the dog, or are you getting a chimp?

If I wasn't married I'd totally go with the chimp option. You'll have to lease a truck to get an animal option though.

probably leave the wife at home. I'd go with the Chimp option.
They're good listeners. I could teach him to play poker so we could pass the time.
