    Oh I called them and they do not have any driver facing cameras. Helpful info for anyone looking at Marten as a choice.

    At the Marten orientation now and it seems really legit and good so far.

    Second day and just videos and a short road test. First day was agility test and videos. Agility test was pushing, pulling, carrying, 30 step ups and downs within a minute. Nothing too hard. Wednesday should be finishing up videos and getting a truck. All in all pretty easy and comfortable. $750 bonus for completing training.

    Passed orientation. Have to travel to get a truck but all in all easy and straightforward. Detention is paid immediately and even if only a half hour its paid. Anyone thinking of Marten, go ahead and do it.
