    So the old lady and I were approved for hire, should be starting 5/19. Question is how long of a wait will she have to be with a female trainer? Also will be training in Springfield, MO. Thanks for any input.

    Female trainers are few and far between, there are many qualified male trainers that have successfully trained females with no issues. You can ask for one of them......

    Why can't you train her yourself ?? Or are you both just out of school?? I have seen adds from company's saying train your spouse yourself.

    I do not have enough experience. I finished school 12/9/13, and I only have 1 month OTR experience.

    Female trainers, now there's something I hadn't thought of...

    The better looking she is, the better student I am, so it's in everyone's best interest to get me the best looking trainer available.

    Looks like you have some experience... most likely you'd do your orientation and TnT training through our Salt Lake City facility.

    If your wife doesn't have a CDL, she'd have to go to Springfield MO for the CDL instructional process we call PSD. The wait for a female instructor/trainer can be quite lengthy. There are some options... one is to go through the instructional process with a male CDL instructor. Or she can get her CDL through a third-party school, then come to Prime for training. Once you have upgraded to solo A-seat status, you can go through the process to become a TnT trainer, then train her yourself.
