    Well they did not have a trainer for me when I finished load securement so they sent me home. I am hoping that some point this week they will have a trainer for me so I can get this show on the road

    Good luck on getting a trainer, I waiting 3 weeks, and got fed up and made a phone call asking to be transferred to the Columbus terminal. I placed that phone call on a Friday mid-day by Friday evening I was put with my trainer and we left Monday morning, I was looking forward to making running flatbed but, Needed to make some money and was tired of sitting around the house, I feel that I was pretty lucky, I'm home weekends and even have a chance to get home a couple nights a week, And I couldn't ask for a better trainer.

    I wish you the best of luck on getting with a trainer.

    If you home so much--its going to take you longer to finish your training. Good luck to both of you!

    I hope I dont have to sit that long waiting they told me to plan on 1-2 weeks. I may have to do the same if they keep me sitting that long I have sat at the house all week and I have had about all I want of it, I have never sat around this long without working, I was in the service, then started traveling around setting up overhead cranes for KoneCranes so I like being on the move and staying busy.
