    You may remember my wife and I from last month. We joined the company and went out with our trainers. I had problem with my trainer and was unable to get a new one so my wife and I quit. When I got home, I sent a letter to corporate explaining my experience. Surprisingly, someone from Chattanooga called me and apologized. We were invited to come back. I had my reservations but we agreed.

    I'm happy to report things went well with our new trainers. Lindsey(my wife) & I upgraded at Tunnel Hill on Thursday. Picking up our truck at the Markham terminal Monday. Excited about this new journey in our life.

    We look forward to meeting all of you who post on here in person. Thanks for all your help with our past questions. You made this new career choice less intimidating.

    I'm glad to hear it worked out for you. You should have been given a new trainer when requested without even having to give a reason. USX can be a good company when people bring problems to their attention. If you are patient you will do well here. Good luck to you.
