squire it is!

I graduated from Roadmaster this past friday and have chosen to go to squire/knight mainly because they have a terminal within 15 minutes of my house and there aren't any other tuck parking locations close to me. I also like their training pay and and their not bad on cpm either. talked to like 4 of their drivers and they all average over or around 3k miles lately.

So, they said that i will be going to mississippi for my orientation, and i was wondering if anyone else on here has been there for their orientation. If so what can I expect out of it? like how is their driving tests to make sure i wont destroy their trucks? how is the hotel? stuff like that.

I leave this Saturday on the greyhound...florida to mississippi on greyhound is going to suck! but, i am looking forward to joining you all on the road!

 

I think so.

 

From my understanding the lakeland orientations is only for the knight portion of the company and newbies right out of school have to go to squire which is their training company. Idk why they don't just use the same terminals for both since they are technically the same company.

 

Got on the bus an hour and a half ago. All I have to say so far is I wish I would have said no to the bus. This is going to be a terrible 19 hours.

 

Half way through the first day of orientation. So far so good. After that hellish first his ride the other 2 busses were fine, lots of space. Hotel isn't bad, got a couch and tv and no room mates. Right across the street from a small flying J, so food for dinner isn't hard to find. I am the only person here that has to go for the squire portion of orientation so so far I am just getting 1on1 orientation. Hoping things keep going like this for the rest of my time here and on the road for them. I'll try to keep updating on how their orientation and stuff is here.
