    no, they have you do the tests they send you info on at a physical therapy place when i was at appleton.


    this thing is like a five star hotel! tempurpedic 12" thick california king, fridge/freezer built in, 32" HD wall mount.... all the toys you could ever dream of!

    :biggrin_255::biggrin_255:

    nah, they be basic trucks, mine has a decently firm twin mattress tho!

    OK that was funny!!!!! what I was really asking.... is the bunk right behind the drivers seat or is there space between bunk an drivers seat.
    I see your from Milford NH. I am starting on 11/12/2012 I coming from Rindge NH. I am interested if everything is going as expected. Was pay rate what they told you, how about miles. My biggest concern is getting the miles to make this work. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    so far theyve been good in all respects, last week i have 3300 miles scanned in...that includes a 450 miler from previous week that i could not get scanned in time.

    heading home after deliverin monday, they have been very good @ getting me home on the planned day. of course, i keep telling them i want to work my way up to stayin out 36 and 7 off. real test will be this next run, if i am home on nov 13 i will sing Roehls' praises as i gear up for opening day of rifle season here in NH :)

    Hey DD... Are you going to Marshfield for your CDL (trucking school) or for orientation? I guess what I'm wondering is if Roehl is sending you for your CDL and if they are... are they paying for your schooling and what are the commitments if they're paying for it.

    I had to quit Roehl after 6 months because I have a BMI of 35 and have mild sleep apnea. Currently considering Swift, Star, Schneider or US Express.
