    Why pack up and move to somewhere you don't have a job? You're not an employee until you passed all the interviews (aka orientation) and hauling loads. This is the first thing you learned in trucking 101 right?

    Well, if you had READ my entire post, you would have seen that I was looking for a local gig while still residing in Florida. Did the college thing, but thanks to our glorious president and his "obamacare" monstrosity I had my hours at a part time job (in florida where I couldnt utilize my CDL) cut in half... forcing me to take a RISK. (down to my last $600.00)

    I acknowledged the red flags. I passed their DOT and OSHA physicals. I went over ALL this with their recruiters.

    It worked itself out in the long run though. I just accepted a local job in Texas. So if you are happy with puke orange... have at it brother! More power to ya! (I mean this with all sincerity.)

    well if you would have read the whole thread (read much) you would have seen and earlier post that said someone was looking to go to PRIME INC. So instead of calling someone a troll... look before you insert your foot, it might just be your own mouth!

    DUDE, how could you not understand what happened? It was a classic bait and switch.. He thought they would honor what they told him. They baited him to Texas. He is over 1000 miles from home. They disqualify him from what he was supposed to be there for. They have him by the gonads now. They thought he would buckle down and bend over. But he didn't. He had the stones to buckle his chinstrap and overcome a company of corruption.

    I am glad he found a place at KLLM.

    OK. I've taken the test as well. It is a little bit more involved than what you make it out to be here in this post.

    Roman612. Did you understand that you being hired on with Schneider was contingent on passing that physical agility test before you left Florida?

    I am confused about the driving a van offer. Was it an offer by the person running orientation or who exactly?
