Wife of new trucker, need help deciding who to go with.

So far, so good. I heard from my hubby today and he said their "free bfast and lunch" aren't really free. They give you a $7.00 discount for lunch from the cafeteria that conway has and his bfast, he had to pay full boat at the hotel. Other than that, day 1 has been ok. Apparently, there were 3 men that walked out when it got to the hair follicle test. Lol. It baffles me why they would waste the time and effort, knowing that they are going to be drug tested when they get there. Lol.

 

Update on my hubby. He has done 2200 miles so far in his first week with a trainer. They got into some bad weather and had to bunker down for over 24 hours in Wyoming due to 50 mph winds. His trainer is AWESOME and he would have hand picked him if he could have. In the middle of all this, my hubs had gotten really sick and ended up in the ER last night with a major sinus infection and double ear infection. His trainer was the one that insisted he go (since my hubs just doesn't like dr's) and they were out of he ER in an hour's time with scripts for antibiotics.
He really is enjoying this time and I think the hardest part is just not being able to pick up the phone and tak to each other whenever we want. It's been 2 months now since we have seen each other and we are ready to be done with the training part so we can go on the road together.
Oh, also wanted to brag just a bit...he backed into the loading dock for the first time perfectly without having to remanouver. Yeah hubs!!!
I really appreciate all of the people on here that have given such good advice and personal stories.

 

I am not quite sure what the recruiters are telling their prospective employees, but the hotel charges them full boat for bfast and they are given a $7.00 discount on their lunch. Dinner is on them.
So far that is the only thing that wasn't as he was told pre hire.
