EPES TRANSPORT-Greensboro, NC

Well, I made it through my first day of orientation without a hitch. So far, so good. Here is what has gone on so far:

Arrived at the Sleep Inn Sunday evening. Very nice Hotel, single room, no sharing (A+).
Day 1: Took Shuttle bus to the terminal, everyone is as nice as could be. Started off with Physical, Drug Screen and a Smith System test. Everything here went smooth.
Came back in time for lunch, all you can eat at the Smokehouse BBQ, very nice.
Back to the terminal for Road Tests. OH MY GOD!! Haven't been on a road test this thorough since I took my NC CDL Road test. To me, this is a good thing. Nice to know company wants skilled drivers. Shuttle bus back to the Hotel. Day 1 complete. Can't wait for day 2 and 3.

 

I will be an O/O so...no 68mph for me.

 

Day 2: Day started just as smoothly as Day 1. Everything was explained very well and the trainer worked very hard to get a lot of topics covered before 2:30 PM so she could let me leave early to buy my truck....Nice to know they are not selfish.
Day 3: Another great day, in fact, got to meet my Driver Manager a.k.a. Dispatcher. Seems honest and willing to do whatever it takes for me to be successful. I feel very comfortable here.

Half day tomorrow and hopefully my truck will be ready to go by Friday so I can go out Monday on my first load as an O/O.

 

Yes, they are DEFINITELY by the book, and so far, they are DEFINITELY top shelf.
