I'm feeling desperate to pass these extreme tests... I don't know what to do other than to reach out and ask for God to pour out his favor and blessing up on me at this point. I did well on my drive test as usual, I finally passed the verbal pre-trip inspection with a 98%, when it came to the backing test I had, I struggled for about the first half, came close to hitting a trailer, but got out to take an assessment of what I had to work with for space. I corrected my steering, repositioned and was able to safely get the trailer centered between the two other trailers. I felt success and was happy I made good time. The observer told me to come over to where he was after I shut the truck off. I walked over there and he told me he didn't like my approach, he didn't like how close I came to hitting the other trailer and he wasn't going to pass me today. Now tomorrow, I have to pass another road test (driving), I have to pass the verbal pre-trip inspection within 30 mins or less with a score of 93% or higher AND I have to do another backing test with a better "set-up/approach WITHOUT getting so close to another trailer. I've never been failed for ALMOST hitting another trailer. To me,in my mind,when I'm able to just see my mistake, correct my steering and angle, safely dock the trailer, that is success. I'm annoyed and stressed right now. I DO NOT have another job to go to if I fail any of these 3 tests tomorrow. Please PRAYER WARRIORS, please pray for me to have nothing but success tomorrow. I know what caused my backing struggles. I ate some nachos from a Mexican restaurant next door last night about 9pm. I had a hard time getting to sleep. I stayed up til about 11:30pm, woke up about an hour and a half to early for my day and couldn't get back to sleep. If I wasn't fatigued, I wouldn't have struggled with the backing test. I'm begging and pleading for God to intervene on my behalf. I know I can do this job. Hurting, angry, annoyed and tired right now. Feels like I'm failing my family. Thank you for your time and prayers!
