    You have a prehire? Do you have an orientation date ? Is the "prehire" verbal or in writing, with details ? It makes a difference.....

    They are a solid company. Top notch training program and good pay. Should make 1k Every week and home on Friday. You will care what you haul when you have to wrestle lumber tarps all week! Cypress and McElroy haul a lot of preloaded drywall that is more trouble than it's worth. Tmc is also % pay rather than millage, such many people fund a better option.
