    I signed up for driving school today and the recruiter at the school had me fill out an application to a Truck Company I have no interest in driving for after filling out the school paperwork. Is this normal? Something just didn't sit right with me on this.

    It was for Werner.. I guess it felt like it was being forced on me. Thats why I question it.

    FDNY, do you have some other company that will hire you upon graduating? Is Werner the only company they work with? Sounds to me like your school is trying to get you a job...not a bad thing; unless you have other options...:biggrin_25515:

    You know I guess I didn't look at it that way, I suppose if you work around people with alterior motives and their own agenda your whole life you don't think anyone would be trying to help..:biggrin_25519: I should give them the benefit of the doubt.. Thanks
     
    shortwjason Thanks this.
