Training Is Finished



I finished training just before Thanksgiving and I get my own truck on Monday. Training went okay. My trainer had a violent temper and was always in an extreme hurry, so I didn't dare take any time to do anything relaxing, such as doing a blog entry. But that chapter's done and now we'll see if I can make it out on the road on my own.

Most of training was spent in the midwest but we made two long trips. We took a load of gypsum roofing to Connecticut and brought back a load of hardwood from Massachusets to Kansas City. After that we took a load down to San Antonio and brought a load of steel back from Houston.

For the next several weeks I assume they'll keep me close to home until I get some experience under my belt. Now that I'm by myself I'll also be able to take my computer with me, so I should be able to report in more frequently.
