    If it is like other mega carriers, expect three days of lies, half truths, and long boring videos.
    The small company that I just started with, did orientation in a half a day.

    Good luck
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    No, I haven't driven for US express, but I have been through orientation, at two mega companies (Prime and swift).

    swift SUCKED. Prime, at least has good fleet managers, when the company tries to screw you over, a good fleet manager will fix it.

    Probably make a lot more money with Melton. The good money with USX is team driving. Melton has the best healthcare for driver and family and drivers average over $52K.
    Roadmaster is a good school; make it pay off for you with a high paying company such as Melton or tankers.

    If you don't have a friend to team with, I wouldn't choose USX, and I do work for them. For the moment...
    Don't make a poor career choice because u chose the company that hired u first.
