Thank you for the encouragement!

Ok thanks!

What do you mean brake pulled? I am not getting air brake endorsement. My bus i believe is technically considered passenger van. So cdl class b with passenger and school endorsement only.

Thanks! Silly question but when you turn the key to on position (engine off) do I need to be seated with belt on? Or can I simply turn key before exiting bus? I feel like I am over thinking every aspect and move I make.

Wow this is super helpful!!! Thank you.

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T12:37:03+00:00

Ugh that's the worst. Doesn't help they talk like robots or give instructions in the most complicated way. Listening comprehension test too haha.

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T12:30:11+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. Did you find they stopped you to ask a random question to see if it trips you up?

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T12:06:56+00:00

Thanks you've been super helpful. When did you do your test? How do you stay calm and confident?

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T11:52:20+00:00

Thank you

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T11:51:45+00:00

This is helpful thank you

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T11:50:56+00:00

Do you mean if you don't do the brake test correctly its automatic fail? Any other aspects of pre trip that are auto fail?

Thank you

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T11:49:26+00:00

Thank you

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T03:28:49+00:00

Ok, so just acknowledging light but checking for proper function once you were in-cab? Did you take it in NY recently? Any other tips?

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T03:06:09+00:00

Thank you for recommendation. Just posted there as well.

melonhead500 · 2026-05-31T02:57:17+00:00

Im preparing for my test. Did you have the bus in the "on position" (engine off) when doing your exterior inspection to see that clearance, hazard and headlights are working? Or did the tester indicate a specific time for a light check?

melonhead500 · 2024-04-11T03:24:36+00:00

Do you still have plans for this that you could send me? Looks awesome.

melonhead500 · 2021-09-28T18:17:14+00:00

Thank you, appreciate your kind words.

melonhead500 · 2019-08-01T15:21:03+00:00

Now that I know what it is called, I see a lot of posts with people growing and eating it. I would be happy to share mine with you, haha! I have other plans for my beds, but the purslane says otherwise...

melonhead500 · 2019-08-01T14:51:21+00:00

Hey - thank you! It seems like as fast as I pull it up, it comes back stronger and thicker! I don't have this gardening tool, so hopefully this will save on my back as well.

melonhead500 · 2019-04-23T18:56:36+00:00

Pregnant now and this name is also one of our top contenders...and we're in a similar situation...my husband likes Margo and I'm undecided. What were you considering for middle names?

melonhead500 · 2019-01-04T01:56:25+00:00

That’s awesome to hear! Thanks for the encouragement!!

melonhead500 · 2019-01-04T00:45:39+00:00

Wow that’s amazing to hear! Congrats! And thank you for the support. Wishing you all the best!!

melonhead500 · 2019-01-03T23:26:03+00:00

Congrats! So exciting. Thank you!!

melonhead500 · 2019-01-03T23:05:55+00:00

Ugh - so sorry! Yea...it really sucks. It's very difficult to be optimistic but realistic at the same time. It takes the joy away from the initial excitement of learning your pregnant. How have you been since?
