    The Hotel is a seperate entity in itself. All the orientation is held there.
    When you talk to your recruiter tell her or him that you would like to arrive early ie. for rest or whatever the case.
    Orientation has 3 different starting days depending on what you qualifiy for on your application.Mon, Tues, Wed. Are you going PSD are you going to lease or company driver. Do you have your CDL with expierence or not.Your recruiter will tell you all this when they schedule you a date.

    Good Luck.

    Prime runs a shuttle bus around Springfield to get you to where you need to go.

    well sitting here in Laredo, TX waiting for dispatch to give us something.

    the first load went decently, I got almost 12 hours of driving done in 2 days, and had to drive San Antonio during the rush, still working on the timing for my shifting, and braking and stuff, but besides that, just killing time. ive done 3 pre trips already in 2 days, so that is getting along

    Pre-Trips will be the death of me if I ever get my full CDL license. I just know that I will mess up with the state inspector clinging to my every word.

    It will get easier with time. Memorize it section by section.

    Pretip is not hard.... Try doing the full inspection you have to do when you get your own truck

    pretrip isnt hard used to have a lot more info to remember just ask ORD(ha) but it will come to you just take your time and like DTB said section by section its also nice if you get a full inspection when you come back you have more points to play with i got a full inspection and thought it was easier
