Prime Cuts: Alec's Trucking Adventures

I've decided to make sort of a continuation of my other thread here because I've decided on Prime as my first choice to apply to. They're not too far from home, their training program seems to be well spoken of here, and they pay good. Even the $600/wk during training would be more money than I've ever seen in my life; even more than the factory job I had once. That's what I make in 2 weeks at Walmart!

Picking up where I left off, I got the go ahead from a coworker to use him as a reference and I've started studying the IL CDL study guide on my breaks at work. I've filled out the application, it's pretty much complete, except I haven't submitted it yet because I need to get one minor thing cleared up. It's about the question "Were you involved in any accidents/incidents with any vehicle in the last 5 years (even if not at fault)?" As stated in my previous thread, I've not had any car-on-car accidents or even a seat belt ticket in the last 7 years, however I did hit a deer 2 or 3 years ago. I turned it in to my insurance company, but we didn't involve the cops or anything like that. Does hitting a deer count on this question?

 

Thanks for the replies guys. I wasn't too worried about it, just wanted to make sure I wasn't withholding something that they would want to hear about.

 

OOPS sorry, didn't know I was venturing into forbidden territory! Not trying to get anyone in trouble here, just thought I'd do something nice for them for helping me out. Just so you know, none of these guys violated your rule by messaging me anything. Guess they all knew about this rule.

Ok, I'll just be submitting that app now then...

 

LOL the only reason I get even that much is because I've been with them for 6 years (40¢ raise with good annual evaluation), and I work overnights which means an extra 50¢ per hour and I actually get full time hours. They give you just enough to look good compared to working at McDonald's. And did I mention working BLACK FRIDAY SALES? <cue screechy horror film violin tune>
