A 2012 Prime Endeavor

Should not be a problem, disclose it upfront as a nervous tick. My son does the same thing. we used it to tell when we were getting a story from him lol

 

Im sure everything will work out for you folks. Sounds like your husband and you are what Prime is looking for, DEPENDABLE and HARD WORKERS.
As A side note, I was about the same as your husband, am 55, was self employed for 13yrs, but had good references and a good reputation. Prime worked very hard to get me on board, was iffy due to the self employment, but I was able to show them records etc and it worked out. I had a slight problem with BP and also passed a kidney stone a month prior to coming to Prime, was on pain killers at the hospital which they of course questioned. I was open and up front with them, provided all my medical info, worked with my Doc's to ensure that they passed Prime EVERYTHING, and it worked out. Prime has done EXACTLY what they said they would do, I am mature enough to realize that the 1st traininer period (PSD) is not only a training period but also a long job interview. the second period (TNT) is also a job interview, where I am expected to preform and be responsible for my decisions, only difference is I am on the payroll. Granted I am not making boat loads of money but it is a stepping stone. After my year is up I will make a decision to either hang and go Lease or to go looking for something closer to home.
BTW I also applied to Swift and several others, Swift worked with me till I told them about my self employment, the others did not really want to talk to me.
I hope you folks have the best of luck in this.

 

well let me tell you whats up when i was their my dad was put in the hospital. i was told he wasnt going to make it. so i left off my trainers truck to go be with him in his last days of living. well he didnt die after being in the hospital for 1 1/2 months i had to stay here and take care of his buiness and get all the jobs he had going.that took all summer to do he had alot of work to do so i did it got it done and closed the buiness downfor him.then i called back and told them what was going on. i felt i was getting the run a round because it took 2 weeks for anyone to get ahold of me.so i was pissed and said alot of things that i shouldnt have on here and yes i do regret saying them.but i did say all them things and i did fill out alot of apps. looking for work family frist no matter what anyone has to say . i finely got tired of no one getting ahold of me and talking to me so i called don lacy he got things rolling for me and now i am getting things do where i can come back i really did like prime. thats why i wanted to come back and i am. and i will finish up everything i have to to be their.and be happy. as for you what are you the fourm police (lol) j/k i know you work for them and i anm glad you look out for the company. i would like to say i am sorry for talking about prime but iwas very up set thank you prime for the rehire !!!!!!!!i would also like to say i did go to columbus and got up and walked out after they told us we would only be getting .25 cents a mile what a joke.

 

Great, Does he have a US Passport, if so that can be used in place of a birth Certificate, I do believe. Least ways it worked for me.

 

this is for u2exit see you didnt know what was going on before you start talking its all good though i see what kind of a person you really are so like i said it all good !!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Good to hear things are progressing.

 

So what? We know why you left Prime the first time. It does not explain your comments disparaging Prime. Here is your comment when ORD congratulated another driver on graduating and wishing a speed road to making some money.

According to your statements guess you have been suckered in, again.

I welcome your explination for leaving Prime the first time. Since you are in the explaining mood... Why did Swift not work out 2 weeks ago.

Both statements made within the last 3 weeks. Swift is where you were, and I guess Swift wasnt where you stayed.

I stand by my statement: I hope they find an inssue and send your wishy washy, sorry butt home. Then you can go back to talking trash about Prime and making fun of us drivers.

 

I'm curious to know what happened the first time with Swift. You supposedly went to an orientation in Burns Harbor and apparently that didn't work out. So you went back to an orientation in Columbus where you claim you "got up and walked out" when you heard the rate of pay. Your stories do not make any sense sir.

First, rate of pay for Swift isn't a big secret. I believe it is on their website; if not it certainly is on this forum. I haven't even applied with Swift and I knew what their entry-level rate of pay was. And you expect people to believe that you never made it to the rate of pay section in the first Swift orientation?

You certainly do seem to have a habit of bashing just about every carrier around. I certainly hope this attitude and conduct isn't one you carry into the workplace. And now you're trying to pick a fight with U2 on an internet forum? Give me a break.

I may not have any experience in trucking, but I have a good deal of experience in detecting bull excrement, and that is exactly what I am seeing here.

I wish you the best of luck, but it seems to me things may work out better for you if you take some time to work on attitude and integrity.
