    Well, not much going on yet, guess orientation class begins at 11 this morning. nobody really knows what going on right now, the schedule is kinda screwy because of the holidays. Im hoping i can get into the DR soon, ive been studying for this piss tests since I woke up this morning, and my bladder is about to explode.

    Thanks Siupo128, im looking forward to it, My roomy is waiting for a trainer also, guess hes been waiting for over a week now. I heard they are pretty short on reefer trainers right now because of the Holidays. Hopefully it isnt the same for flatbed trainers.

    Give it a week guys. Once the holidays are over, you'll be falling down after tripping over all of the trainers that are hanging out!

    :biggrin_2559:

    Learned a long time ago in the military... you don't even want to be hanging out at a training organization over the holidays!

    Well, first day is over with now. Did my medical, and my interview today. It did feel like I was buying a new home again. I did my skills test on the simulator and passed with a 97% first try. Tomorrow I have a full day of classes lined up starting with Hazmat. I still havent made it over to the Millenium building yet, Hoping to make it over there for dinner tonight. Ive seen a few nice lightweights sitting here at campus inn. Cant wait to be able to drive one of them.

    All i can say is WOW!! I visited the terminal this morning and I was floored, I couldnt believe all the trucks sitting there. One of the lease guys i met yesterday picked out his new 2012 Pete, unbelievable how nice the truck was, lots of space. Ran into another guy that was quitting Prime, gave away his brand new Cobra CB, had a fridge for sale, only asking $50 for it, and a 22 inch LCD for the same price. I still have lots of miles to run in someone elses truck, so I passed on all of it. Anyways, about 50 new PSD students showed up late last night, so classes were all jacked up today. I went in for fingerprints, and was told to come back at 4:00 this afternoon for the maintenance class. So, when i was at the terminal i went into the company movie theatre, watched a movie and had lunch. Seems like Prime really cares about there drivers. Facilities are top of the line in my book. So far thats about it for day 2.
