    You sign a document stating your are responsible for up to 500 dollars damage to truck or cargo but they said they could charge you whatever they wanted to. Also they have cheap equipment snap binders instead of ratchet binders. High health insurance and low miles I believe the fleet average is 2200 miles per truck only 20 for tapping and most loads are tapped.
    In the end I didn't think it was worth it.

    Typically the lowest level of experience you'll need to be able to skip more training is 3 months

    Whatever your hire date is is when your experience will start ticking from.
    Some companies won't officially hire you until you're done with training.
