    Unless something comes up with background check or physical, you will have a job offer if you get through the backing and driving tests.

    No backing and driving test until after I am with a trainer for 4-6 weeks.

    Has your trainer picked you up yet?

    Certainly shouldn't be unexpected tho. Folks posting having to wait lengthy periods of time for trainers is quite common here on TR. Most patiently wait and some jump the gun and try another company. I'd recommend you stick it out. Sure, it isn't what you want but neither does anyone else.

    Do you like what you see with the exception of waiting on a trainer?

    Since you have your CDL, maybe you check and see if you could practice backing with a spotter in a corner of the yard......to help you get a jump on your training?

    Everyone else's loss OTF! You should be highly motivated to prove the others made a mistake ala Mike Piazza or Joe Horn.
