Hi Guys! After a couple of days sitting, I finally got out with my trainer. Stevens flew me to El Paso to meet up with him. His name is Alex, and he is really cool. He is only 27, but he is very mature for his age. I think we will get along just fine. I met up with him last night at 11. He has been having issues with the reefer unit keeping the freight cool, so it took him a little longer to get to El Paso than he thought. After I met him, we went straight to sleep in anticipation that we would be heading out First thing in the morning. Well that didn't happen...
Right now, we are sitting at the Thermo King dealer in El Paso because the trailer temp is 8°F when it should be -10°F. We are sitting under a load of chicken bound for Chandler, AZ with a delivery time of 11pm. We hope to get rolling soon, but there are 2 trucks ahead of us. Welcome to the trucking industry! Until later!!
