Question:
I just got a call from a recruiter the other day and I will be going to a training school for a week for some refresher courses, after that I will be heading out with a trainer for 4 weeks. I first got my class A 6 years ago, and only drove for a month afterwards (my brother-in-law, who was then my team driver/trainer, ditched me about 8 states away from home and then the tractor itself a few states later...I quickly decided that was'nt something I was wanting to go through again any time soon, thus the long gap in time before I finally decided to give it another shot.). I have forgotton quite a bit in that time and was hoping for some pointers from experienced drivers and trainers. I scoured through the Newbies section last night and while there is alot of great imfo, theres just too much to go thru to get a good list of "what not to do's" and what to do's". All good pointers and advice is welcome. Thanks.
