    I'm sorry to hear of your problems. This is not a TransAm problem, rather a OTR problem. All companies have ###### trainers.

    I told you in a previous post I was starting with TransAm. I have previous experience, so no trainer for me.
    In all I would have to say I am VERY PLEASED. They give me good miles, have excellent support, and are very friendly.

    good do the 90 and go out on your own. it's so different by yourself. remember the first couple weeks suck cause your by yourself and still trying to learn the job but it gets easier and goes pretty smooth once you get a hang of it...........

    Any updates?
    I'm glad to see you went back. I'm currently out with a trainer as well and he and the whole experience have been great. It's with a different company than you, but i'm sure every company has a few bad trainers running around.
