I will be going to May this Tuesday 12/18/12 for orientation in Payette, ID. I am not in the least bit about passing the skills test or driving test as during my re-certifying my C.D.L. my instructer said lets go to their yard so off we went. When we got there we got permission to try their course (3) different things doing right turn, straight back dock and serpentine dock backing. The first time I went there I ran the course 2 times with no problems and on Wed this week (my last day in school) went there and ran it again and not one problem what so ever. So needless to say I'm not worried at all about it.
I will say one thing however, when you start with a co. and your with your driver trainer, when you stop at flying J for fuel get yourself a flying J card (not a credit card) and when you fuel up you swipe that card and for every so many gallons you put in you get credit for a free shower. Back in 1999-2000 it was every 50 gal. you got a free shower but it by now may have changed.
I am looking forward to going to work for may as I think that will be the best fit for me. -
yeah its up over 100 gallons now, like 125 or 150? not exactly sure but I've fueled plenty of times where i was only authorized 100, which it stops at like 99.xx and i know those dont give showers
-
It's still 50 gallons for a shower driver. Since I can fuel wherever I like, I got over 7 credits on my card.
-
I fueled at pilot a few times this month for like 99 gallons and i didnt get any showers on my card

or i should say last month, theyre all the same to me >.< -
Maybe your card isn't swiping correctly? Because it is fifty gallons. Heck, when I was at May they would give me those stupid 35 gallon fuel dispatches from time to time. I'd go in and talk to the manager and they would most always give me a shower anyways.
-
Supposedly, if you work for May, you can get a shower with any fuel receipt from a Pilot or Flying J. When I did the train the trainer course, I was told that May has worked out a deal with Pilot/Fying J. I never tried it myself though.
-
yeah someone told me that as well, about getting a shower for each time we fuel no matter how much it was cause we buy fuel from their parent company or something I dunno but i know i dont get showers every time i fuel
