    653 miles for a week is low lol for most companies even for starters. My very first day out with a trainer I drove 430 miles 😂. Ended up the week with like 2,200 miles. That guy was running the hell out of me!!! But it’s good experience. Glad he did well

      I quit snacking and cut back to one soda a week. I pack my own food to cut back on fast food.
      I also have a workout machine, but you can use the rubber workout bands.

      If you go through the CDL program, you don't start getting paid until you're in your trainer's truck.

      For the cdl program I know DOT does the testing in Iowa and South Carolina. Training is done in house. My current trainee went through it so we are going to talk about it in this weeks vlog.

    Is am supposed to be coming to orientation in a few weeks after I finish my school and take my CDL TEST is it possible to get a 10 speed after I get released on my own? I see most people drive autos

    • @LawfulGiraffe
      @LawfulGiraffe  3 роки тому

      You can request one for release but you won't have it long. They are selling the 10s off to make room for the 12s auto.

      Yes. They cover log books in orientation to make sure you have an understanding of the basics. The test are based off group average so you have nothing to worry about, super easy.
