    I am confused. If someone signs a contract to get trained and leaves their commitment, why are they mad? They got the services of getting CDL training. Now if its the $6,000 they are made about then why did they sign in the first place? No one had a gun to their head. Contract training is an okay option in my opinion. I just think often times recruiters mislead people but if you have your facts straight you shouldn't have any issues.

    They always mislead the person. I have had a student on my rig and he started to get upset with me and the company because he was making a straight 300 per week. Which I was making a bonus when he upgrades, plus two other bonus and getting paid for all his miles. He signed the contract for 1yr or pay the 6k. I told him this was his choice not mine. Also stated to him that it seems he should of done a better job in researching about this career then believing a person on the phone telling him he would be making 40-50k for his first year.! Also telling him he would be out with a trainer for 2wks only.

    Most of the new comers think it is easy out here. They don't understand it is hard to be away from family, friends, pets, etc. I always gave a run down on how hard it is out here and what kind of detachment they will face out here. Some will make it while others can not.

    Take your own sheets. Take Lysol. Use your own towel.
