| | Training begins..finally !!
In today's world,
It pay's... 'not' to put your eggs in one basket !!
I have been approved for heavy equipment operator training, and CDL training threw the state of Ohio !!
I will be able to do 17 separate jobs upon completion of both school's...That makes perfect since to me in today's world. Because of my time on this Blog, YOU truckers have educated me on the reality's of the transportation buisness..."I can't thank you enough for the quality info, you so freely gave me"
It is going to be a great BONUS ,and/or PLEASURE to communicate my new endeavors in the transportation industry. I will enjoy myself, learn about myself, have accountability for my actions, and enjoy sharing this new occupation with YOU.
I have been a member for a few months ?, and have said horrible things to others, and good things to others...
Either way; "It has been fun!!"
On this forum, I will 'attempt ?' to keep myself in check with my daily or weekly actions.
I would like to share these with you, and hear some feedback at the same time.....growing can be a pain in the *** sometimes.
Thank You, ahead of time.....
Woodys

Taking advantadge of the heavy equipment training is a great move. That could open up endless opportunities in the future.

Woodys | Heavy Equipment Operation is indeed a good field to explore as there are substantial rewards offered and the availability of World Wide travel.
I had done similar training in southern California in the mid 80s yet I split to NC and a year later my name came up on the list of which I declined further involvement. I wasn't moving back to California and there are no H. E. or O. E. Unions that I'm aware of in NC, let alone any other Unions other than Electrical.
WELL DONE Woody!! |

you won't be able to work at a union place, and not join the union......you'll get pounded into the dirt if you even tried........
