Any questions from prospects or lookers from real Watkins and Shepard drivers?

Is the 10 day advanced training paid?

 

Yes...$400...

 

Thanks for the quick reply!

My school had a job fair yesterday and there was over 10 companies there and i had to leave before i could talk to the recruiter from watkins and shephard,so im online getting info on them before i call them monday.

I live in georgia,
where is there orientation and if accepted to go ,do they provide a bus or plane ticket or rental to get there.

Ive been unemployed for two months so funds are scarce.

I most likely will graduate this friday coming up,i have to retest at the dmv ,i passed my pretrip and yard test but failed my road test which was easy ,but i was nervous as hell and screwed up my shifting.

 

Orientation will be in in Conover, NC and they will provide a bus ticket...Good luck on re-test!

 

Sure wish my school had a W/S come by but that's all good.

I know how you feel about being nervous. I was as well and messed up by rubbing 2 curbs. I re-tested and passed, though I did miss some points.

 

How do you have time to do all the powt throw furniture to to tune of 10 stops in one day and 400 miles to boot? Man you are amazing, I like your work
I think iam about to get busy over here where I am now, I need to get some rest as I head back north in the morning after taking a 34 in MD rarther then down here in Tornado alley, I must have missed quite a show, I feel for those who lost all that they did, I'm doing well looking at another average week here, I have yet to touch one piece f freight my name on my shirt says driver not loader,,,

Footwear ?

Any requirements? Steel toe? Are cowboy boots allowed? What works best for you?

 

Footwear's a good question. I'm a little curious myself. I have a pair of western style work boots that I hope will work. Can't afford a new pair of boots now!

 

All of those will work, no open toes around on the docks and a couch on the toe is a aweie waiting to happen, I wear my tennie runners and they work fine. Take Care Be safe. TD24

 

I had to wear my boots during my driving practice. It took me a little bit of adjustment to the different style of pedals, especially the throttle. Boots seemed to help rather well.
