SCHNEIDER UPDATE HUGE Changes coming

When we originally got to Indianapolis the plan was that we were going to be there for 18 days straight. When we arrived Monday they told us that they were changing the class schedule. What USE to happen, is you would do a week IN CLASS, then spend time with your TE (Training Engineer, that's what Schneider calls their road trainers" then for the 3rd week we would be back in class, learning how to work the computer on board and trip planning (which coincidentally was what you learned when you where out with your TE, which I thought was odd) so instead, we did 2 weeks in class room, then week 3 we met up with our TE, which is were we will start this blog.         Was told Friday I would be going to Gary Indiana OC (operating center, were driver services is, maintenance and people park their trucks and vehicles while on the road) little out of my way but just another hiccup to get my own truck, and I would have to drive to Indy OC to pick up a rental car to drive to ...
