My Prime INC Experience. (A Running Log)

Mr.Jimmy Bones where to start, have to much in my head, overload, i"m guessing PM means private message?,referring to my previous post "don"t know how to" and i"m again guessing if that is the case it would mean it"s like having a private conversation?, i realize that some would read this an be thinking, man this guy is clueless, as i have stated on other (school) thread i"m knew to all of this, never tweeted, no face book, small e-print, i also know even at my age i can still learn things from both young & old, and vice verse. And i have used this one myself when asked "The only stupid question is the one not asked". I than follow that up with my own line "Your mind should be a sponge,always be willing to absorb knowledge no matter how old you are". Takes away what might be taken as a imply"d insult. Times they are a changing, i put four years down but i realize i"m starting over, 20 plus years removed from the biz.. Just thought of something, i have written down pages from this thread to refer back to for my questions and now after writing all of this, worried if i go back i will loose all of this an have to start over, and as the tec. at the library said i"m a chicken pecker, or two finger type"r guy,Dam.

 

Ok.

Yes. PM stands for private message.

In future correspondence, I'd recommend a little less rambling. It's hard to follow and confuses writer and reader both.

Just ask what you have, and we'll do our best to answer.

 

Hello Jim, can u explain how to P.M., and if not because of rules or security, i understand, will have to catch a friend when he gets home from work he"s a tec. and can explain. Got your message, good word for it "rambling", will try to stay on point, thanks for being patient. Going to scroll thru pages numbers i have to refresh for questions.

 

Click on the member's name in the upper left hand corner of a thread response. A drop down menu appears that includes a link to Private Message. Click on that link, and it will open the editor.

 

Jim page 15 talk of W.I.A. grant, am on list for that and gonna check on that to make sure, community college was mentioned, not an option for me, non down state, and I.P. (who i see has joined in-happy for that) said better off going thru P.S.D. course at Prime. Question, i go to school, get C.D.L., where would i start off at with Prime?, and what do the acronym"s P.S.D.,& T.N.T., stand for?

 

Prime Student Driver & Trainer 'N' Trainee.


In a nutshell:
If you went through PSD, you would get a minimum of 75 wheel hours, and get your CDL on site at Prime, assuming you passed the test. You'd get a $200 a week advance while a student, to be paid off incrementally once hired. As a student, you are not an employee yet.

Once in TNT, you are hired, and get a weekly (gross) salary of $500, which increases to $600 after a couple weeks. Once you finish your TNT miles (30,000 truck miles, if you went through PSD, 40,000 otherwise), you are issued a truck and earn mileage pay.

 

Jim or to anyone out there, just hit me, when going back to pages to reference my questions, instead of jumping back an forth, can i just post it from the page i"m on, like say i"m on page 27, write my question there and it will post on most current page? would save time.

 

To Jim page 65 about P.M., Iron Pony had said, "May need to boost your post count", now i know you have already extended an invite, and i appreciate the offer, question is, do i have enough post count, or does it go by invite?. On a separate note Darracq sent me a thanks, noticed it in notifications up top an i don"t know why? don"t get it?

 

To Mr. Iron Pony thanks for the info. if you are following this you will see one of the pages i had saved(65) you had already answered my question, so thanks 2x, an for your info. you & Jim are the two people i was wanting to talk to as you guy"s are very positive and informative,and that"s (refreshing) a good thing.

 

Don't remember sending you a thanks, but I forget what I do sometimes lol.
