Trucking school is a lot like boot camp by: Collin Barnette
Thanks for the supportive words Hervey.
You said it, I didn't think of it but yes, Trucking school is a lot like boot camp. It's sort of a general overview of things to come. Getting you started on the skills you will need to be successful in the times to come. Many different individuals with many different skill levels. But, working together we come together to archive what we are all there for and that's to attain our CDL and get employed as Professional Drivers.
Hey, I passed my Air Brake Cert today. A big step if you've never been there. The next few days will be spent focusing on pre-trip inspection. A lot of stuff to get straight in our brains but I am certain that we will all get it done and move forward.

Trucking School almost like the basic training for trucking by: The Crazy Trucker
Well actually this site is like basic training, if your not sure I will try to weed you out from driving. lol
Trucking school is like AIT. It further conditions you preparing you for permanent duty. You gain perspective and you get an idea like you said of the different types of people and circumstances you may encounter and how differently people will handle it.
Rest assured everything will not go like clockwork.
Patience and tolerance will help you to stay positive. We all know it's not always easy though lol (you should have seen me yesterday!) You seem to be developing it rather quickly.
Anyway, this is very interesting Collin, kind of taking me back to my trucking school days. Great job, will break the ice for a lot of people.
You seem to be settling in and setting a great example at trucking school.
