    It is a morman run company. Quite honestly, they will size you up as much a possible on the tradional mormon values.
    They will see if you are a good prospect for the church. This is one of the reasons for them trying to be nice to you.

    Lets not get out of hand here. Yes it's a morman run company, but they have coffee and soda, so it's not like a hobby lobby. They separate their beliefs from their business.
     
    Contrail Thanks this.

    They recently brought the pet policy back mid 2012. $500 non-refundable deposit

    Our training in Fontana was 12 days Mon-Sat. The first four days in the classroom were 630am-430pm. In the yard was 7am-330pm. After that you'll have two days of orientation and on the third day we went to the yard, were shown a few things, got our trainer info and fuel cards and were sent on our ways.

    there are many things you have to have done in order to upgrade. Minimum 28 days with the trainer. Minimum 200 hours driving. Minimum 40 backings. Minimum 20 refer presets. And you have to have your booklet all filled out. Think there was one other req but can't think what it is right now.

    At CRSWVC tonight for the first time. Day 4 with trainer.

    Under the First Amendment, Americans enjoy two freedoms with respect to religion: the right to be free from a government-imposed religion, and a right to practice any religion. While private employers are not bound by the Constitution's restrictions on government, they are subject to federal and state laws that ban religious discrimination in employment. Given the number of employed persons and the variety of religious faiths in this country, and the freedom we enjoy to express our views, the subject of religious discrimination continues to pose tough questions for employers and the courts. Because of our country's great diversity, employers may hire employees from a great variety of countries and religious backgrounds. In an ideal work environment, the religious beliefs of a given employee, or of the employer, do not create conflicts. Either is free to believe as he or she chooses and, as long as the work gets done satisfactorily, neither will encounter difficulty on the basis of religion. Yet, in the real world, a number of issues can arise to create friction. An employer and employee may discuss, or even argue over, religious principles. What's more, religion is not simply a matter of belief. The faithful practice their religion through various actions -- styles of dress, manner of keeping or wearing one's hair, trying to recruit others to their faith, following certain diets, praying, fasting, avoiding certain language or behavior, and observing certain religious holidays. Put simply, the many characteristics of different religions provide ample ground for disagreement, conflict, or even harassment among employers and employees. just some info good luck! :)

    Just a small correction on upgrade retirements: minimum 28 days and 200 hrs drive time. Most of my students end up with 30 days, 210+ hrs. My current student is on track for 28 days but he just started.
