U2, I've been getting the same thing lately. "Call tomorrow at 4" The next day at 4, I call and get "Call Tuesday after 10" On Tuesday at 10:10, and I get "Call tomorrow morning" (If they answer the phone at all. lol!

I don't know what's wrong with them just saying "Call one week from today" or "2 weeks" even. It may be nothing to be concerned about but it is frustrating. I haven't been working more than one opportunity at a time so it eats up a lot of time waiting. Maybe that's my own short coming, though it seems respectful to me. Guess I'll have to change that.
Good luck.

I got through

I called multiple times, careful to leave only one message each time. Well, the message box was full this afternoon... So I called and stayed on hold rather than enter the ext.

I was careful, didnt want anyone in trouble, to mention that I had talked to an individual, but I wasnt sure if they were my recruiter, because the gist of our conversation was merely whether they had recieved it, they had, and to call back at this such and such ext. the next morning.(Tues)

The lady, today, answered a few questions, and set me up with a March 25th date, and indicated the previous mentioned recruiter would follow up soon with some details and I would receive some info in the mail.

One load lifted, another one received with a little more than 3 weeks to pack my little world up and move out, and hope I can take care of the minor details by the time my lease is up May 31.

I have answered most any questions and concerns that you may have. Also come to "Time For Prime" after you go to ask an o/o on this sight
so is prime and good company if you want to learn how to drive? because what im getting from your posts its not a company to go with it your not going to do the leasing. i like the idea of being put with a trainer like that instead of throwing you out to the road 3 weeks after. mind you i im not looking to back 50+ but at least the mid 30's of 40's the first year

Living back east you will probably do well. I asked about the tank division and was told it would be hard to get home out here in NM as most of their tank freight is east of here. I do see one or two tanks a week out this way.
