    I was supposed to start at C-1 Little Rock on the 20th as well, but my DA has now put off my "Final Confirmation" for the 3rd time - have to call back tomorrow.

    She did offer an "option" to get me in under a different program - but of course it requires money that I don't have to spare at the moment.

    So we'll see tomorrow what happens.:biggrin_25510:

    You sure as heck shouldn't. You also shouldn't have to pay to get to your school either - as much as they charge, should be included lol. I would have PAM pay for it. Or something, know what I mean.

    I know that you are responsible for getting to your hotel and from the hotel to school. I herd that the hotel has a shuttle but arent very reliable. Im not sure about the orientation tho.

    I recieved a call today from my driver solution reecruitor and he asked if I would switch from working for Pam to working for USA-truck. I accepted. So I will be working for USA instead.

    as far as getting to orientation after your schooling is over and you go home, your trainer will pick you up at a location that is near your home and you will ride for 4 to 6 weeks with that trainer. After your 4 to 6 weeks you and your trainer will drive to the Tontitown, Ar home office where you will undergo orientation and upgrade to the first seat position.
