    Are they still under the 'Prime' Umbrella?!? If so, Job History for 10 years is mandatory...and a good one at that, so I hear.

    No, they do some hauling for Prime and that's all. Completely separate company.

    Wow ok! I hope I’m not being bamboozled or anything but from all accounts they’re a solid organization.

    It's easy to be nervous when changing to a completely different industry and especially for a family man.
    I had a wife and 4 children when I started and made a lot of mistakes because didn't have a forum like this one to glean information from.

    To make matters more difficult, my boss just offered me $5 more per hour to stay. I already have a company truck to drive home and make my own schedule.... dang

    Would you rather be there or in Montana? Choose one and go for it.
