After 28 years of welding, I have been attending Elite Truck School in Hillsboro Or. I will be taking my CDL test on Tuesday 12/24/13 (other than the normal nerves) everything is good!
I have contacted May and am pre-approved to go top work for them. They are just waiting for verification of my CDL results.
When I get an Orientation date from them, what should I expect? What are the facilities in Brooks like? Is there decent places to eat close to the OP center/motel....what should I attempt to take with me...etc.
I really appreciate all the good information on these forums, just nervous after being in 1 "career" so long and having to switch!!!

It gives you a good idea what's around you just about anywhere.
There's a Pilot TS, Subway and pricey so-so restaurant across the street from MTCBR OC
MTC put me up at

Nice enough, single room. Warm b-fast, basic cable.
Just pay attention and stay away from trouble.
GoodLuck.
A welder with a CDL is a good way to go.Jimmeyjack Thanks this. -
Do they follicle test in orientation?
-
Wow, you are really afraid of follicle testing it seems.
blwjr, Reroll and skootertrashr6 Thank this. -
Lots of us read all the new May posts.
Chillax a bit! -
kslim6, it sounds like your trying to smoke one by them by asking that question, twice. There is no room in this industry for that attitude.
I had a level 5 inspection today. Passed with flying colors and you're worried about drug use?
Go deliver pizzas. -
Kslim6 nobody knows for sure what kind of drug test they do. Scooter jones is just trolling you and saying they hair follicle test to scare you. Scooter jones doesn't know what kind of test they do unless he works with may or has inside information. If your that worried about a hair test then sober up or reconsider. Someone might say they only do urine test and you end up getting hair tested. Or the other way around, they say hair follicle test and you only get urine tested. No one knows what kind of test and it can and will be a surprise.
