    Hey guys, sorry for the hiatus - life has been busy!

    I renewed my DOT medical card and FMCSA vision waiver, did my HME fingerprinting and ELDT and have a CLP test date to renew on the 12th!

    I got callbacks from Prime and XPO. XPO is basically a shoe-in. They have a terminal in southern Maine. The recruiter basically said that it's so hard to find drivers up here that I'm guaranteed a school position and a job pending on outcome of the school. She said it's so bad that she asked me if I knew anyone else interested because she doesn't even have a full class split between three states. She will be calling me tomorrow at 9:30AM EST, so we will see how that goes.

    Fingers crossed, this might be it, finally!

    Also wanted to add that I do have a camper that I'm currently renovating - got it for a steal, $500! I don't have anything to haul it with, but I couldn't pass it up! :biggrin_2559:

    Just wanted to update everyone:

    I’m currently with XPO, I’m in week 4 of school and test this coming Thursday.

    It’s been absolutely awesome, XPO is an outstanding company from what I have seen so far. They’ve really been taking care of me and I’m extremely confident in my ability to pass.

    Thanks everyone for your help, especially you, @Chinatown !
