So I go to class as usual today at Roadmaster. It takes me roughly an hour and half drive each way. They do role call and tell me that I cant go out on the raod because I dont have my physical done......
Ive had my physical since before I even enrolled ( I already have a CDLB). I gave copies of my long form and card to my recruiter which obviously she probably never turned in.
So 15 minutes after I get there they tell me I might as well go home even though I had the long form and medical card in hand.
Im supposed to call some guy tomorrow at the school about the "drop list" thing......I am so pissed!!! I should be out on the road training but because of this crap im sitting at home doing nothing....
Does the drop list mean Ill have to start over or be delayed my original graduation date?
....I was HOT this morning.....this and other events have made me a little sore....
Im on the drop list!

Well this is just preparing you for all the dumb crap you get to deal with when you go out on your own. Sounds fishy...keep your cool work through the process.
-
Could be an issue with your background check or something else they found that would prevent you from getting a job.Is roadmaster a training company for a certain trucking company or do you pay for it out of pocket?If you're paying for it seems kind of odd they are kicking you out for a simple thing such as no physical(which you say you have)
If they are a training company for a particular carrier and you don't meet their standards then must be something they found on your background they didn't like.Any DUI's,Felonies?Tha would explain alot.GITRDUN45 Thanks this. -
Road Master is a truck driving school.With carriers,does'nt matter if we had a physical a week before we start that company,they want the drivers to take a physical with their doctor.Wonder if the same policy applies with Road Master.
Snowshoes Thanks this. -
I so now why a school would care as long as they have record that you have a current medical card unless this is a requirement of there insurance company?
-
No, I have nothing on my record and have a clean CDL.....They specifically told me it was because my physical was not on file....
Im sure itll get fixed tomorrow but still, I should be training today. I had my long form with me today as well as my medical card and they didnt care...they said it had to be on file with adminsitration.
Im thinking my recruiter for the school never gave adminstration a copy of my physical when I gave it to her.... -
I definitely wouldn't let it slide. I'd go right into the office on Monday and call the recruiter out. You're paying them money for a service and you should get what you pay for.
-
Thats exactly where im at with it.....it was and is a total waist of my time showing up this morning....I get up at 430 am to be there at 645 am...school starts at 7. I treat this like a job (which it is) I show up on time every time...the least they could have done was told me at the end of class yesterday..skellr Thanks this.
-
ok if its all over the physical then it should get worked out for you on Monday.I understand your frustration but legally without the physical you cannot drive the truck.Sure they could let it slide and keep you on the yard but you cannot go out on the road.
Hope it works out for you. -
I start school a week from tomorrow and nothing EVER goes right for me. I am always afraid something like this is going to happen to me.
