The 'Other' Russell- lower left corner with basball cap.
This was my room mate during classes--also Driving out of Lowell, Ar
3rd generation Trucker- did fine with all the hands on, but need extra help
with all the written tests. When I quit( 6months after going 1st seat, he and I were the last 2 remaining in Lowell from this class. Class started out
on Day 1- with 95students, after drug testing & background---on day 3 we
had 29 students.

This guy scored the highest scores on all the tests, both written & skills test- the 'real' Iceman TopGun of the class. He would never touch the steering wheel without wearing a pair of white euro-style racing gloves.
The evening I quit JBHunt and bob-tailed their truck back to Lowell, Ar to
go on my New Year's Eve Date---he was cutting & serving up the prime rib
at the Hilton restraunt for our dinner. I asked him---"what happened"
He made it 2 weeks with his trainer before he decided that--trucking wasn't
'FUN'---he said his mother was fixing to pay for him to try something else--
going to 'Chef School' in New Orleans. Hope he found where he belonged-and is having 'Fun'.
