    Fake a seizure and fall on the floor. This will grab their attention. Then tell them you were overwhelmed and nervous and they didn’t help you out by making you wait. Then name your pay rate.

    Trust me, a random guy on the internet.

    Ya don't say? I walked out of an orientation once, a long time ago. But I did already take the drug test. I thought refusal required you actually going to the collection site, signing in and everything and then either not providing a specimen or leaving before you provide a specimen?

    Sage advice.

    Only thing I'd add would be to stand on a chair as you name your pay rate. It'll project an 'Alpha Driver' presence.
     
    Milr72, JoeyJunk and Opus Thank this.

    The only thing in Trucking that is ON TIME, is WAIT TIME.
    Everything else is secondary.

    The Interviewer was just "testing your mettle".
    Now to WAIT 4 their decision.

    Next wait time will be, the "Drug(s) Test".
    Walk out of that and you'll become unemployable UNLESS there was a VERIFIED MEDICAL EMERGENCY (or so I've heard at the lunch counters).
    CHEERS!!
     
    JoeyJunk Thanks this.
