    What did they do for the physical and also is there an agility test to check your strength and stuff? Thanks!

    Their physical was exactly the same as the DOT physical I had before I came... Standard requirements. You must have blood pressure under 140/90 - no temporary pass you will get to retake it one time the following day.

    No agility or anything like Roehl has.. you just have to "properly" pick up a box that has 75 lbs ( I think) of weight in it and set it back down.

    Lots of the larger guys were instructed they have to take a sleep study.

    Pee drug test (with the door closed) - I was kind of surprised they weren't at least leaving the door cracked. Heh

    Anyway it was no big deal at all... But you WILL be required to do it even if you just got a Med card before you came like half of us did.
     
    lbutler Thanks this.

    Well.. supposed to get our trainers today. We still have about half of the people that started, although after seeing some of them in the simulators I Can't imagine them being allowed to Rip the gears apart in a $100.000 truck today? Anyway according to Wally we are likely to roll out for our 10,000 miles today if they have enough trainers in town. I woke up at 4am lol... Can't wait to get out of here!
