    Does PAM give physical evaluations at orientation? I can't find whether or not they do anywhere! Anyone know? If they do what crap do you gotta do?

    thanks,

    Thanks for sharing that link.. I've read every single thread, and not a one mentions a physical evaulation.. You know where you gotta hop in the back of the trailer, and do steps for a minute etc.. It doesnt say anywhere.

    Back in 2003 when I went to work there out of school they didn't have any kind of an evaluation. You just had to pass the DOT physical, road test, and skills/pre-trip test.

    No physical exam during orientation, just the one you have to do for DOT to get your medical card.
