June 2016 Prime Inc; Approved and ready for orientation

Oh, it's no problem. 2 answers: Home time at Prime is okay. Company drivers work 4 weeks and can get up to 4 days off (depending on what you choose because during your first year, those off days aren't paid. You don't accrue vacation days until a year after like most companies). I would usually take 2-3 days off. I took 4 days off before I switched over to lease.

Lease drivers pick their own home time, so its random. It's also based off what you can afford because those days aren't paid and you have to cover all you businesses weekly bills.

In both cases, your dispatcher will "ask" for at least 2 weeks notice before you take home time just to make sure they can route you home. If your near home, it may not be a problem getting you there w/o the 2 weeks notice.

 

It probably will, if you go tanker. Pittston is usually where all the tanker guys be. You may be able to get home quite a bit depending on if they have a dedicated route through there.

 

Not sure. That's a recruiter/a Prime driver from your area question. North East regional account may get you home a lot, BUT the North East is a tough account.
