Just relax and do what they ask you to do, as you will not be there too long in life to worry. Don't get nervous especially before your agility test, and do stay awake. Also if you meet a guy they call "by the book" just be humble and try not to let him get you worked up

CYA tomorrow, Red.

well you havent said anything about how much you get paid?????
-
I have a clean MVR and I don't have issues with drugs. Are there any other reasons that Schnider would not hire someone? It would really be messed up if I put in my 2 weeks notice at my current job and not make it past Orientation.

I suppose that as long as you don't do anything too severe during the road test you should be fine. No hookers in your hotel room. Set your clock. Don't smoke B4 your physical. Curse Obama and praise Limbaugh. Don't say "oil and gas" jobs; say energy jobs.
Then;
Endure a year of being highly underpaid in a hazmat position that you shouldn't even be in cause you have no hazmat, tanker or off-road experience. After the one year gift is complete and you have not rolled over and killed someone's kids then get ya self a job with Cheseapeake (22 per hour and OT after 40. 8K per month if you do your part), Plains Marketing (easy 100K per year in Texas. 140K + in N.D.), Martin (6 - 8K per month), Dillon (6K per month), etc, etc. Add 30 to 50% to those Texas "energy" transport jobs if you are willing to do the N.D. thang.
Good luck to ya.
Remember:
All safe tanker drivers own the wave and respect the surge.
Be careful every moment you are behind the wheel. My kids are driving 4 wheelers down there.JahB, Tractor7127, Ajv1987 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Allie Cat, ^ correct, although I think simply not discussing politics would be an acceptable alternative. Generally, being an "unsmart person" in several possible ways would not help you either. In your case. I don't think that's a problem.
AllieCat Thanks this. -
I definitely appreciate the heads up as I will be starting orientation after graduating cdl school in a couple weeks. That is if I don't screw up my pre-trip, maneuvers, and road test. Hopefully all goes well and I will be starting after graduation because I got the go ahead from the Schneider recruiter that they'll take me. I got all the endorsements on my permit, passed the hazmat background and fingerprint, did the same and got my TWIC. If you don't mind replying or messaging me about the Cheseapeake, Plains Marketing, and the other "energy" positions that would be helpful. As for the things to do and not to do I think cursing Obama would be the easiest lol! Thanks KDC!

Question....the Schneider recruiter told me they hold back a week regarding pay. Does that start with the orientation week or does that start from when you're assigned to a truck after being out with a trainer? The example she gave was for the pay when you start hauling. Can anyone confirm that please?
