I see the trainer qualifications are still low at PAMMY

Some things in this industry never changes.Your friend is probably thinken is this what I have to go thru when I go solo.

 

Yes, and he probably didn't do any research at all before choosing a company. Do you remember the guy a few months ago that spent thousands of dollars on private CDL school then was so excited because he found a great job with CR England? Wonder how that worked out.

As for those "Check Engine" lights; the best thing to do is put a piece of black electrical tape over the light and forget about it.

 

if u find a trainer out there u have found a rare jewel.these so called trainers just want the trainees along to do the work for them with out teaching them anything.i guess u have to know something before u can teach others

 

I was going to say...training for 6 months? Probably just got his CDL 8-9 months ago.

I guess I lucked out back when I started...my trainer had been w/ the company for 12+ years, and had been driving since he was a kid on the farm. He was from my parent's generation, and knew enough to point me in the right direction. I feel bad for a lot of new drivers...training is nothing more than the blind leading the blind. Ridiculous how some of these companies operate...but the SAME companies who are pushing regulators to mandate speed limiters, e-logs, and all of the other BS are the SAME companies resisting stricter standards for training new drivers. Go figure...
