    Hi, Im planning on Going to squire program at knight. I am a heavy set guy and was thinking about the cost of the sleep study and machine. So does knight pay for my sleep apnea Study and machine, or is it all out of pocket

    You want to be diagnosed with Sleep Apnea ?

    I could never work at Knight based solely on the fact that they call it a "Squire" program. LOL. This isn't medieval times, this is trucking ! Does the "Squire" program cover pissing in bottles ?

    "Yes Sir, I Would Like To Be A Squire" (in medieval voice)

    Do some comparisons with other trucking company schools. Call Knight and ask directly because some companies reject you and some bill you and deduct it from your paychecks. Some companies don't even want the sleep apnea test done on their prospective drivers.

    They should give you a medical history form, put no for all of them. If you have a high bmi, neck size 17 inches or more, and any other conditions then doctors will try to push the sleep study.

    Why anyone would want to work for Knight is beyond me.
