    I see alot of folks going to Spring mo but not to SLC location. I am heading there to start with a Prime. I am going for the L/o way and was seeing if there are any other L/o that can give advice and the success in being a L/o. My biggest adjustment is doing percentage of loads vise cent per mileage.

    Well just did the full indoctrination into the prime lo program. I picked up a 2011 387 pete. So far its doing okay but the truck has a short lease. Overall the orientation went well now to start earning the income.

    Nothing wrong with a short lease! It'll get you some money in your pocket fairly quickly - and the release bonus will be available sooner if you want to keep on going. Just watch your fuel bill... it'll kill ya if you decide it's time to hammer down everywhere.

    That does bring something to question now. I wonder why they are sending me all the way to MO for training when I'm from California and could just as easily get trained in SLC? Hmmm..No big deal for me as I love traveling, but I am curious.... :)

    Global when you get your ticket you will probably be sent
    to SLC. I was told originally that i was going to sprimo but later got the ticket to slc.
