New Driver,Have CDL,Should I jump ship? Pam Mentor flaked on me.

Here's the reply I got from PAM....


Mr. #####, sorry you experienced a communication problem with your first mentor. I was surprised the Wesley did not communicate with you about his scheduling problems. I just checked, his truck in still in the shop and there is no ETA for him to get the truck fixed. He has, of course, been pulled from your assignment. I saw an email that a new Mentor will be assigned as soon as possible. I just checked, a new assignment has not been made. As soon as we get a suitable Mentor headed your way you will get a call from a Fleet Mentor advising you about the details of your new assignment.




We are as anxious as you to get your training started.

 

I sent a message to L.J Rogers, as they are very close to me being in Mebane!

Thank you so much for your time and help Chinatown. It means a lot, it really does.

 

Ok. I got on the phone with a few different companies, and my best option looked like WERER. They are shipping me to Atlanta, GA next Wednesday for orientation. They told me about an interesting Dollar General bit that's reginal...( NC,SC,VA,WV )...Which is around my home, so that's good. Tuesday through Saturday..I'll be making .44 a mile starting out, which is PAM's base rate for TEAM hazmat....I thought it sounded good, so I went for it. Werner will pay my tuition costs to boot...

 

I'm looking into more regional settings, and driving by myself...I was very good at backing in school...First to take my backing test, and pass it the first time...I didn't think it was that hard, as long as you can imagine how much space you take up in 3 dimensions...Someone's got to do it, right? The pay with my Hazmat endorsement means I'll be starting out making what I would as a team hazmat driver for PAM!

I'll go to the orientation, and see how it goes.

If I don't like it, I can always go somewhere else...

I just need to get out, and get started!
