[QUOTE="pretender, post: 1272866, member: 1493"] While it is a good idea to learn how to do it, it is not a required job skill. It is also valuable to learn how to back a set of doubles, but that is also not a prerequisite to pass feeder school. When starting your day at the vast majority of hubs, it is just as efficient to pre trip your tractor, then get a dolly to spot in front of your trailer. They only spotted a couple of dollies at my hub, and that was for the drivers who took delight in taking as long as they could to hook up, before making their daily trip to the shop. We had one guy who had even had his set hooked up for him, and he still could not make it to the gate on time. I used to like working with him, because I could slide by under the radar... [/QUOTE]
