"He also gripes about my handwriting." He has a valid point, your logs have to be readable by anyone who looks at 'em including but not limited to you, him, your company's log/safety department people, scalehouse dodes, LEOs, the state DOT and Fed DOT bubbas. Make 'em legible. BOL

I could never train ,as my students would hate me...WHY...Because I would slave them into setting up my weights ,and putting them away...Now that I think of it I might start training :wink: :lol: seriously though i don't think i could train ,because my truck is very neat ,and i know I would lose my cool with most students ,because I see very few who keep their truck as clean (on the inside) as I do ,and I would eventually start acting like an ass to the student .

![]() No big deal I never go to failure , so as long as the student returns to put everything away we would still be good to go :wink: During the winter months I figure while I stay inside the warm cab between sets he could remain outside on the bench as to keep it warm between sets . :idea:

I just have messy writing. :evil:

if you start having more trouble w/ your trainer, you should probably call Dav or Darin and let them know. jerky trainers are bad news!
i have pretty terrible handwriting too (i should be a dr!) and in my job i have to do a lot of writing. when i started here i started writing everything in all caps because it makes me have to slow down and actually concentrate on what i'm writing, and not just scribble like i do when i write with lower case letters/sign my name/whatever else. you might give that a try if you haven't already.

Common sense and courtesy should prevail. If you are doing something and he ask would you do something simular, why not do it. If he is doing something and you ask he should do it. You just don't want to be his gofer.
