That's interesting because we have someone in orientation who has been out of a truck for some time but has several years driving experience and they told him he wouldn't be out with a trainer for 8 weeks but would be a week or two.

 

Day 3 Orientation

Day 3 orientation has come and gone and we are all done. They got everyone processed through today and we received our cards and trucks. The three of us who need training were assigned our trainers. I spoke with my trainer this afternoon and he seems like a really nice guy. We seemed to hit it off right away and I'm feeling much more comfortable being in a truck with someone I don't know. I will be heading out on Friday and am very excited. In total 11 people started orientation and 9 of us completed it. The two that didn't were due to medical reasons. This was a small orientation class and I guess next week they have 38 people scheduled to begin their orientation. Glad I wasn't in that one! LOL

 

Spending the night in Mt. Vernon, IL

A tornado went through Dix, IL about 15 minutes after I passed through there 7 miles north of Mt. Vernon on I-57................

 

Congratulations!!!

 

Thank you! I'm excited to get out on the road with my trainer and begin my new career.

 

ok...varified today....refreshers are no less then 3 weeks....new cdl holders are 8 weeks with the last 2 running as a team....still at 300 a week.........

 

What would they consider a "refresher" and who makes the determination?? Is it just someone who's been off road for a while or something else??

 

If you have over 1 yr experience in the last 5..its refresher...or 6 months is the last yr..if that makes anysince......must be OTR....recruiting and safety make that determination when you apply

 

Good luck............
