    I have been accepted to drive with Prime,But they are having a hard time finding me a trainer to get me started.I live in Charlotte NC and I have to go to Palatine to do the physical/orientation.I have spoken to HR and they are willing to have me come there and do the paperwork/physical and then I will go back home until a trainer is available.I really want to avoid all of those out of pocket costs and begin training asap,but it just hasn't panned out that way.I respectfully ask that if there are any trainers in here that's willing to help a fellow driver out,I would definitely appreciate it.I already have my CDL and have some OTR experience so it would not be a fresh out of school driver situation. I just have to get back in the seat and get back to do what I love.Help....

    Are you sure your working for Prime Inc? Nothing in your post adds up to anything that I know goes on for orientation.

    everyone attends orientation and has a physical at one of the three terminals. Transportation by bus is paid for by Prime Inc.

    before you pay anyone any money contact the real Prime Inc... If that is where you want be employed.

    I thought prime inc and prime logistics were the same company. the payscale is exactly the same. It makes sense now when I posed a question before and no one understood where I was coming from.I was wondering why I had to pay for transportation and other random stuff. Thanks for the heads up..

    There are a few outfits called PRIME LOGISTICS and some have NOTHING to do with PRIME INC.

    I have a feeling this is the outfit the OP is looking for info on based on what he posted
