    I know you won't make it to Lousiana much, but we have a lot of good Hot Sauces that orginate here. Louisiana Brand and Crystal Hot Sauce are both great. I like Crystal Hot Sauce with Beans... Of course we have Tabasco also, but I like it when mixed with Ketchup for French Fries and Fish... Most of our Hot sauces can be found all across the country.. Be safe

    Just finished my first day of training at roehl, there's quite a lot of stuff to learn in 3 weeks, might be a little tough.

    • @bluegrassoutdoors
      @bluegrassoutdoors  2 місяці тому +1

      It's a lot to take in for sure! I would try to study the pre-trip in your spare time and skip through any jj kellers that allow you to. You can scroll though some of the videos. They take hours upon hours if you dont. I wish you the best with it and keep us updated. You've made a start and that's a huge step! I wasn't comfortable with my pretrip until the beginning of week two.

      @@bluegrassoutdoors pre trip I got the passenger side engine done without the paper. I'm more worried about the backing. Wednesday we are driving on the road. That's a little scary. I'm a diesel mechanic, so I've driven with a trailer but only in a yard.

    • @bluegrassoutdoors
      @bluegrassoutdoors  2 місяці тому

      I was very nervous as well. I didn't get comfortable until I actually went out with my trainer for 3 weeks. And even then it took time. The road test isn't too bad. Make sure you oay close attention to all of the signs cause they will randomly ask you "what did that sign say". And also watch your speed. And then don't run over curves. That's an automatic fail. We all failed our pre-cdl test. They should give you that on week 2. If you are doing that well with the pre-test, I believe you will do just fine. Are you flatbed or dry van?

    • @joeymcfarland1818
      @joeymcfarland1818 2 місяці тому +1

      Originally I was gonna do flatbed, but they couldn't get me in till mid August. I switched to refrigerated, I'm at the Appleton Wisconsin terminal, parallel parking is also on the test as well.

    • @bluegrassoutdoors
      @bluegrassoutdoors  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes, all three backing maneuvers are on the test. Offset, straight line and parallel all inside the cones. Pretrip, backing maneuvers and road test is how the CDL test goes. They should show you a tecnique for setting up your backing maneuvers and once you learn that it will get much easier with repetitions.

      I'm only on my 5th week but my last check was $960 or so after taxes. This check should be more and you get 3 raises or so your first year and also have the option to lease to own a truck or become a trainer after 6 months and both raise your pay quite a bit
