You can have one but will cost you $400 deposit. You get $200 of back if you quit and turn your truck in with no damage from it. We had some drivers abuse the old policy and screwed it up. Never understood why take it out on all of us cause of a few clowns but then again some things this company does makes me wonder anyways. If you go lease they cant say sheet about it and no deposit. Oh they take it out of your check a little at a time. And they will know if you have one or not. They put this yellow sticker on your drivers window that says pet. You aint got it Kurt will blow a gasket which is fun to watch sometimes but bad for the driver.

 

Morning Smurf,

I just got an email from Russell at Central, he tells me at this point they have No Pet Policy? I guess they must have changed their minds about allowing pets.

 

Well this whole thing just went down the crapper for me. Minimum age is 23 and the pet policy doesn't exist!!! That really sucks because I'm 21 and have a dog I'd have to take. This has really got me down now...

 

I'll be in Salt Lake friday. I'll see whats going on and let you guys know.

 

There are ways around that like staying out of SLC. Our other terminals really don't care it's just certain people are on a power trip latley.

 

Thanks Smurf......I just assume, when he says no pet policy, that means no pets.....maybe it means they dont care either way.... "you can take a great dane if you can get it up in the cab!!"

 

I will be starting with Central on the 18th. Is there any Info i can get from current students or recent Graduates. I have a few questions i would like to ask.

I already have a cdl to they have a refresher course or will i have to stay for the whole school.

on what day do they do the physicals and drug screening.

 

Physicals,drug test and work well test on first day....tons of paperwork also
Do you have experience with your CDL ?

 

Yes but nothing recent. Last time i drove was in 2001.

 

You will go with a trainer,for a short time(1-3 weeks) depending on how he thinks your doing. Than upgrade to solo. Trainers are hit and miss-------some good some bad..same with dispatchers,some not worth the powder to blow them to H&((. If going solo when you get your truck CHECK IT OUT WELL. SLC shop SUCKS. Take pictures,look at everything. Try NOT to get a 6 series w/ a Volvo engine.GUTLESS POS
