scared for my well being... worth requesting a new trainer?

They are known throughout the South as Palmetto BUGS, kindly refrain from insultingly referring to same as roaches.
Proper procedure is to grab a paper towel, pick it up, walk it to the door and toss it out. They don't like to be stuck indoors (much like myself) and will thank you for your kindness by flying far, far away from you.
OK, that problem is solved. Now for the hookers and dd's; the advice already offered was perfect - tell them you have no $$$ and be "respectful". Good luck - it's just culture shock.

 

are you saying you've spent a week in a motel away from home while your Trainer gets "home time"? Am I even hearing this right?
How much are they paying you to stay in the ####roach motel?
It's called Department of Labour, I think you start there by writing a letter after you take the truck and return to your home with it.
asap
No need to mention this on your resume of course.
If the police ask just say it must have disappeared while you were busy kicking the crack ###### and drug dealers out of your room and you took the bus home 5 days ago.
Better yet take it to the Atlanta Flying J you might get a couple grand for it easy no questions asked and then fly home in style, 1st class.

 

This Stars rest Inn???? not seeing the "ambiance" your describing

Well. Not AWL of us live in or near toilets. It's one thing to see it on TV, another altogether to see it in person.

I'm not the freshest punkin in the field myself and have personally seen some gawdawful stuff before becoming a driver. But to be faced with it day in and day out...is unacceptable to me. Which is why I try to choose my truck stops and resting places carefully. I like beautiful things to look at. I am still able to be shocked by what people can do to each other. I have deliberately cultured a certain naivete within myself...because when I can no longer be shocked, I am as bad as those who would do that sort of stuff.

Considering my history, this is an amazing feat.

My last piece of advice to our young friend: never completely give up the ability to be shocked by human behavior. Or sub-human, as the case may be.

And the bigger the bug, the bigger the *SPLAT!!*

(I know there are very few bugs that large in Monnesota.)

 

The ####roach is nothing to compare with a Minnesotan mosquito. Those ####### are bigger then a great dane & more dangerous then a little tiny ####roach.

 

Fly off with small children who are not properly chained to their beds....never to be seen again...

Why, you could put a saddle on 'em....

Yeppers...MN skeeters are pretty vicious. I kind of had the misfortune a few times last year.

 

I'm truly shocked and amazed at y'all for not giving this lad the proper advice.
SK.... Recruit all the hookers for "A better life as a Warner driver", collect all the "reference" bonuses and smile when you think of the future "orientation classes".

At least they'd be familiar with "the position".

Werner.... "F--- You Driver".

Trainee.... Cost you 500 bucks."

 

No they would make them all into DISPATCHERS or better yet SALES that way it would be honest when a driver or customer complained they got S C R E W E D

 

Yrs ago I was a werner trainee and I was told by trainer that he checked out the hotel before putting trainees in there.So you might want to call trainer and let him know how bad it is.Werner doesnt like for trainees to be in trucks without the trainer
