    I have taken the evening to read through the posts. I am impressed that we have grown-ups here with level headed and intelligent conversations. Speaks volumes of the Prime drivers. After reading the website and talking to Travis the recruiter, it was a no brainer to go with this company. Let me explain:
    1. Any company that has high standards for entrance will have high standards of conduct throughout its organization. (I hope this is the case)
    2. Prime must be confident of its traning program to offer it for a one year commitment. As a military instructor, I can say that this is a real challenge that is hard to meet in all cases. (some just aren't cut out for the job)
    3. I have had several calls from the recruiter asking if everything was good to go for Monday.
    4. New trucks, WOW!!!! I was briefed on the truck types you can bring, and when they said 2007 or newer that get 6mpg, I was very impressed.

    The list goes on and on, and I am a pragmatist when it comes to good things. I always look at deeds, not words. As a 20 year Army retired vet, I have some expectations from the organization I work for that I will not compromize. Reading the many many posts here and elsewhere make me comfortable in my decision to jump aboard. Lucky for me, Sprimgfield MO is just down the road.:biggrin_25522:
