My Prime student-to-lease experience

I talked to a prime recruiter like 10 years ago and didn't make it much past introducing ourselves before the "do you want to be your own boss" #### started. I've never seen a company jump to that so quick and then constantly talk about it once you say no. Needless to say.....I have never worked for prime.

 

3500.00 a week? That's 18200.00 a year, Stevie Wonder can see that won't work.

 

Note to self: Avoid ticking off cute girl at Prime desk....

 

This sounds as though you are not an Owner operator.... My company, and I am a company driver.... Does Not monitor my off duty breaks. BUT.... If I except load, and the scheduled delivery appointment....it is on me to deliver. If I say, I cannot make such and such delivery time.... the delivey appt is adjusted. That being said....if a Rigger with cranes has an appt... I either accept the load, or lose it....

 

Like parents with a newborn............. we try to teach them from our mistakes, yet are told we are stupid, they will do better. Hopefully they will. Sadly most ask to come back to the nest after learning the hard way, we might have been correct. We hope they prove us wrong.... and thankfully, some do.... sadly, most don't.

 

I would rather be homeless and live under a bridge than to work for Prime.

 

Those drama queen youtubers that promote the prime and other mega company fleece deals are not helping. Just brings more newbies to fall in the trap

 

I told the lady I wasn't interested because I didn't know the business at all...I knew I would fail from the start, can't be in control of something you have NO idea how to do but she just kept going on about it so I told her thanks but no thanks.

 

182,000.00

OP, is it a 1 year lease? Do you own the truck after?
