I'm think I'm done with Prime

While I personally don't blame you for being upset, I do think it's a good idea for a rookie to get his first winter under his belt with a partner.

 

I saw several Prime trucks in the ditch all over the country last winter. After that one and as early as this one is starting - and looking to be as bad - I'm not surprised they're focusing on additional winter training. It's worth taking advantage of it.

 

No accidents? A week ago you were asking about taking primes smith systems class because you hit a fence with your trailer ... I think there is a lot missing from this story prime isn't just pulling all new drivers in to retrain

 

I dunno maybe after the load shifting incident and hitting the fence they think you need a little more time with a trainer before the bad stuff hits.

 

If you're not content there, then leave. Set up an orientation date with a new company and follow through. Real simple to do.

 

driving in the Northeast during rush hour is less stressful than driving on ice

 

Im not familiar with this particular driver's case, but if they are asking him to get more training then he is a hair away from getting fired from whatever accidents/incidents he has accumulated while solo. Someone thinks highly enough of him to retain him as a driver by offering this opportunity.

And yes there is a program to target poor drivers for additional training. This case appears to be beyond that. The return to a trainer's truck is certainly a step more than that poor driver program.
