Wow really? So the address in the orientation email is correct then, it's on fayette street by what looked like a shopping plaza I think according to google maps. I thought orientation was done at the terminal itself which is why I searched the address of the actual terminal and found it about 3/4 of a mile away. Is the building they do orientation in offsite clearly marked? Maybe I should follow the hotel shuttle bus over in my car the first day lol.

The original plan was to make that terminal bigger but US Xpress ran into problems with either local or state government. That's why it's an hole in the wall terminal. They do orientation at the strip mall like Brandson said.
ASevenfold Thanks this. -
Alright then. Yea I'm looking at the shopping plaza on google maps street view right now and I see the Papa Johns he was talking about, there's a Shippensburg therapy place is right next to it along with a Rite Aid and what looks like a supermarket that closed up. Google has some of the signs blurred out so I can't see what they say. Orientation email says suite 3 and 4.
I got the places mixed up because the orientation email says " Shippensburg Terminal " and then it gives the address of the shopping plaza. Earlier when I search it I was like what the heck that ain't no terminal lol. So I googled the address of the actual terminal and it's roughly a mile away and thought orientations were there. The email packet should say " Orientation location ", then I wouldn't of gotten confused. -
Google Maps has the Markham terminal wrong for future reference.
ASevenfold Thanks this. -
Thanks good to know.

The place is literally right next to papa John's in there and I believe it is clearly marked with the USX logo above it.
ASevenfold Thanks this. -
And don't hang out in front of Papa John's...lol
ASevenfold Thanks this. -
Okay, thanks a lot Brandson for pointing that out, saved me some hassle of showing up at the terminal itself for orientation tomorrow looking like an idiot.

I'm sure your not the only one. Just remember that the old lady doing it has been known to send drivers home for not being able to do some of the tests to her liking.
ASevenfold Thanks this. -
You mean the " physical capabilities test "? What do you actually have to do? I saw somewhere that you have to go under a 4 ft high panel or whatever to simulate going under the trailer, can you touch the floor with your hands or do you have to do that silly duck walk? Does she make you wear at heartbeat monitor while doing the tests?
