[QUOTE="Justanotherbrown, post: 4711457, member: 86432"] Feeder was the best thing that happened to me. I did one year in package and signed a Feeder bid that no one else signed... I was called few weeks later to start studying for my permit. The rest was history. I went from first progression to top scale in one year and couldn't have been more happy. Now 5 years in Feeder, I'm still happy. If you're intimidated by driving big rig and the skills that come along with it, you should be. Respecting the equipment is one of the key to being a skilled driver. I see a lot of people get cocky in Feeders and those are the people that tear things up the most. Always remember that big rigs will kill instantly, not cause accidents. The best perk that I really liked was jumping into top scale right away. At least that's the way it works in my local. Secondly, all the lifting of any kind of packages was left behind. I don't miss those bulk stops or those heavy pickups at all. Although Feeder is more mentally exhausted rather than physical which allows you to exert energy for a nice work out when you get off work. I can go all night. Just sign that list and don't look back. [/QUOTE]
