KryOn....those people do not have to worry about a camera filming them 24/7 for weeks at a time. I talked to a recruiter for a company a while back that has them. And yet, the are on, filming, 24 hours a day. So if someone backs into while you are sleeping, that is a triggering event, and it saves some time before and after the event, including you jumping out of bed in your birthday suit to see what happened. The clerk at a retail store has to make a conscious decision to do something wrong while at work, for the camera to be an issue. When that clerk is off duty, the camera does not matter to her. Also, have you ever read directions off a piece of paper while trying to find an unfamiliar customer. Of course you have, we all have. It's part of our job to read directions. Now, hit a pothole, while reading your directions, and there is a saved and recorded video of your "distracted driving". There are numerous threads on here, pertaining to the camera topic. And I have yet to see a good reason for driver facing cameras. The privacy issues for drivers aren't overblown. They are very real. And to compare it to any other industry scenario is an "apples to oranges" comparison at best.

Earl Henderson probably wants 6 months experience or attend their CDL training. If you already have a CDL they probably will fast track you through the program. They have in the past from what's been posted on here.
They provide transportation to the school, provide single occupancy hotel room, meals.
