    It means u may be away from home up to 5 days bouncing from terminal to terminal. What I meant was there's a possibility you could be gone for days at a time or you could be home every day, all depends on central dispatch.

    so the "extra board" doesn't just exist at one terminal, you might go from terminal A (your home) to terminal B and then off to terminal C, etc????

    Haven't heard anything yet. Maybe I'm just anxious, lol. Really hoping they call me soon.

    They actually just called me. I accidently left off some info on my 10 year employment record. I only went back to Dec '05 instead of July 05. Easy fix, she is going to email me a form to fill out and fax it back to her. Big relief. I thought they had gone back yesterday and the way he was talking last week, we were going to move lightning fast through this process. Looks like it is moving along well enough!

    You will hear something. It took a couple hrs to call back, make sure when you get your new med card to goto the dmv to self certify it to your cdl (link it to your license) before you start training

    They called me today. Apparently I forgot to tell them about a 'no brake lights' ticket from two years ago. I honestly forgot all about it because it was supposed to have been DISMISSED. So I had to write another statement about what happened and why I didn't mention it. 100% honest, I completely forgot about it. It shouldn't even be showing up on my record.

    Anyways I faxed that in, the lady said she sent it to corporate. The waiting continues.
