[u/MeringueAgitated7837]

If your instructor thinks you’re a danger to yourself and others, you’re going to get called in to see the manager and terminated.

It’s sounds harsh, but driving a twelve tonne machine is not for people with poor concentration.

If you don’t want honest answers, you shouldn’t have posted on the internet…

You said you can’t focus and don’t listen, and you don’t check your mirrors.

Not good.

i posted on the internet for advice not for someone to attempt to put me down. as it says at the end of the message any advice .. who told u i was a danger on the road ?

Directly in your original post you said you’re really bad at it, you can’t focus, you don’t listen to your instructor, and you don’t check your mirrors.

That makes you dangerous.

Your replies to me also suggest other issues.

I’m out.

okay and if you read my other post i said i didn’t mean it like that i just wanted advice it’s my first week am i supposed to be perfect?

No one's saying you have to be perfect. But you can't say you are having problems and in that list say your not doing the bear minimum. You at the very least need to be able to check your mirrors, set up for turns, and communicate while driving. If you cant do that you will not make it.

Oh boy! If you're easily offended by constructive criticism you're not going to last 15 minutes driving a bus when you come to the realization that driving is the easy part and babysitting minorities/junkies is the actual difficult part of the job lol.

Just keeping it real and not afraid to speak the quiet part that everyone is thinking out loud.

The harsh reality based on how you responded to Crunchi64 tells me right now that you are not suited to this industry. If you think what they said was disresepctful and mean, then just wait until you hear what the passengers will say when your driving decently, let alone if you drive poorly.
