Airfare = out of pocket expenses which I cant. Greyhound means long trip, but I can earn some cash since Im getting around $200 If I get my own ticket. I'll go that route since I do need to feed my family... $220 from prime, get ticket online now for $100. Plus fees to get to NYC and terminal. Hoping around $70 earned and I will use that until my psd is over. Hope that goes well. Eat less means diet for me so hope I lose some weight also!
Cant afford to spend much, since my family needs it. Wife + 3 kids aint easy. If anyone can give a basic list I need please pm me... I'm also preparing to warm my own meals while training in truck. Will not be buying food. I can live with eating noodles or something.

 

During heck week you'll be fed at the campus inn. If you get a decent instructor he/she should at least help out when you need it. I would be good enough to do that anyways. (My instructor did) .

 

prime gives PSD a 200$ advance per week that money is for their food no instructor should feel obligated to help their student do anything except pass their test

 

Obligated, no. But there is still a thing called common decency. If a student goes in and the instructor is so stingy that he/she won't even share a cubic inch of fridge space then things could get unpleasant and/or miserable for said student.

when I get a student on he/she will have some cabinet and cubby hole space. I will also try to share some fridge space.

 

prime finally got around to calling my past employers and one of them, i guess a hispanic person picked up and he didnt speak much english so prime pretty much said NOPE and now their saying i need 2 notarized letters saying i worked there.. i told them to call back to try again its only 5 mins out of their BUSY schedule.. they said NOPE

whats the deal with these letters can it be anyone can do them because i dont know many people willing to go out of their busy schedule to go to a notary with me other than my parents, and hopefully they dont call them because my parents dont speak much english either... ahh this sucks.

 

Yeah you would think common courtesy specially being with your trainer for 2 months.

 

wow prime screwed me big time, after 3 weeks of waiting and a ton of paperwork later they accepted my app, only to tell me my license means nothing and i got to go through the PSD program and get my license AGAIN! wth prime i already paid a lot of money for my cdl im not about to do all that hassle all over again plus sign a 1 yr contract..

oh well there goes prime. im going to tell them NOPE.

 

first prime didn't screw you!!!!! Evidently wherever you went to get your cdl wasn't on primes approved school list . you won't have to get your license again they want you to go through the PSD program to make sure you can drive and you would get a 10000 mile credit toward your team training miles you need to rethink telling them nope

 

You screwed yourself. Sat on your CDL for over a year. Prime only takes CDL school graduates with no experience within 6-8 weeks of graduation... Blame yourself.

 

As per the other respondents to your post, the blame is on you sir. Outside of a local guy desperate for a driver, none of the majors are going to take you on without an extensive training (or re-training depending on how you look at it) period. It's not up to the carriers as much as it is to the insurance providers. Your extended lapse presents a very high risk for your involvement in an accident... the insurance companies have enough empirical data showing that drivers with that kind of lapse independent of their experience level are a much higher risk. Good luck in your future endeavors, but I think you'll find that to one extent or another you'll get the same answer at every door you knock on. BTW, don't burn your bridges with an angry phone call; after you check around you may decide this was your best offer.
