I dislocated my knee back in 2003 and ever since then it subluxates (slides out of place and then back in). The Prime doctor told me to see a orthopedic doctor and get a waiver. So I came home, scheduled something in, saw one, and got a waver and sent it to Prime. MY doctor told me that as long as I do the physical therapy exercises and TRY to go in to physical therapy it would all be good. The Prime doctor called my doctor and told me that MY doctor told HIM (the Prime doctor, confusing, I know) that I had to do 3 months of PT and do a follow up before I should work... SOOOO now I quit my previous job, it was at a casino and my job was taken within days... My health insurance is running out, and I have no sort of steady income... Isn't that Prime doctor being a little nit picky? It hasn't happened in nearly 6 months, I got a knee brace, I do my PT exercises at home... Got all the paperwork he gave me signed by my doctor, and got the full work release from my doctor...
Well, I'm looking into other companies, anyone know of any other good training companies like prime? I don't have money to pay for anything out of my pocket and I just got my CDL permit. This time when I do the dot physical paperwork, I'm not gonna put on there that I have a knee problem during the physical... I was looking at swift but I hear some bad things about swift... And I'm not looking forward to getting up at 4:00 am to go to classes =_=

In your other thread you said that Swift turned you down because you live in New Mexico? Don't believe all the bad stuff you hear about Swift,there are good and bad points to all cos.
As far as getting up at 4AM, many times you will be driving through the night to make delivery times as required by the recievers.You have to be able to adjust your sleeping as needed.Mudrunner Thanks this. -
That's right about swift. I worked for them twice. We parted ways both times by my choise. They kept my running my arss of and never missed a paycheck.
