    They also used to give you a physical and drug test on first day there because no one has one when they get there that's new to everything did they not have you do this to avoid the whole issue or did they quit doing it either way totally agree I would be angry

    Im doing th weekend class which is a big part of why Im so frustrated about missing the day, I work 5 days a week and its hard to make up a day especially since its not might fault.

    They gave physicals to everyone who needed it and I had my drug test done on the second day. I paid for just the drug test of course being I showed the doctor my long form and she said I was good.

    Kind of Judgmental, Actually the "other events" have nothing to do with me but rather the entire class....Im just not going to bad mouth Roadmaster as this could be an isolated incident.

    Somethings telling you wrong.....

    I went 2 road master in west memphis ar when I attended they had a specific place where they wanted a med card from and the clinic sent the results and all info straight to road master. I think the main office is in florida. It will work out 4 u just be patient. I got the run arouse with them 2. They tried the same thing with me because they didn't get money from state right away. I had 2 go get a letter from unemployment office saying that the program I signed up 4 was gonna pay and how much. When I brought that letter back I resumed with my class. Try not 2 go off on them it will just make things worse I no it's irritating good luck

    Good. Hope it is only the physical. That would probably be the easiest to straighten out.
    I just recognize how these schools operate.
    Wait until you have to deal with some of the carriers who have little or no respect for the driver. Then you may believe how little they care about the driver, and how quickly how they will release you if you do not fit in their idea of a good driver.
    Good luck.

    Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.But let me ask you this,how would you react if this happened to you?This poster hasn't said anything disrespectful to the members.He has every right to be angry.All the gas to and from school and all the time invested.
