    Out of the freezer and in to the cold, eh? Are they putting you out with a trainer first?

    Day one orientation complete. This was in the dallas terminal . If you are new to Diving they will send you to tulsa OK .Pretty standard. Morning was all paper work, DOT physical, urinalysis , they also take hair samples for drug testing. Then they provide lunch. Afternoon we completed our road test plus backing. Was easy test. Then finished paper work and typical quizzes. Got some home work for a load/trip planning.
    will update after day two.
    Thanks all

    Haven't been to Dallas terminal yet seen the rest. Good luck and specify not going with trainer cause they don't teach jack about securing at orientation.

    This class has experienced drivers so no trainers. Will get our trucks Thursday then on the load board friday. Supposedly tuesday afternoon, weds, Thursday is securment training. But mostly our questions will be answered in our driver hand book. Lol

    Dallas terminal is small. More like a drop yard. They said another year there then moving the location .
