    *Posting this for a friend*

    So he is about to start TNT training a Prime, Inc., and is wanting to take a job working in the oilfield closer to his home. He is wanting to go back to Colorado for personal reasons. Anyway, he is wondering what will the consequences be for breaking contract with Prime? Will Prime deny that he got his cdl? He said they gave him a piece of paper after he got his cdl stating that he can drive as a team with no one in the passenger seat with this piece of paper. Will all he have to do is pay Prime back for training?

    Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    So all he will have to do is pay the company what is owed?

    It sounds more like he has a CDL permit. They can't deny he has a CDL if he has one, because he's in possession of it. Usually you sign an agreement to work for a year or two years, for the company that gave you your CDL training. They put a financial value on that training. If you quit, you owe the remainder of that value you haven't worked off.

    They can't take his license but he is going to be billed whatever the rate is for school.
