    I think you should ask your questions in the ask a trainer thread. That way questions might get answered in the open forum that others who are considering May can read the responses.

    I get what you are saying, but my questions are unique to me, and I dont want to bore others.

    I did four days of orientation in California this weekwe had about 30 in the class.four drivers were on dedicated account the other 26 work for the i-5 they said they're hiring more drivers due to the new 34 hour restart coming in July. 6 drivers sent home due to physical and drug bust. They do hair follicle they do a very extensive physical the check for hernia live i was suppose to be local but they changed me to regional. I'm not mad about that because it's more money home every other night two days of week and I'll be making more than when I was training at may I was supposed to train for three days for the specific account I'm working on but they just threw me out here by myself I got a 2014 Prostar has no def which I'm not complaining about 65 miles per hour so that's cool it's half thesize of a regular sleeper I'm amazed by how much roomier it is but that's alright with me cause I'm home every other night already got use the 10 speed but I do miss it the 13 but so far everything's good they give you a fuel book you choose where to fuel as much as you want you choose routing so now I feel like a big boy haha
