    Ask them what you have to do if you have a blowout forty miles from nowhere?

    I didn't have any trouble getting a trainer. I was out of school for a week when I got the call from the training department. It took a week because that's what I requested.

    Hey Dbl how did the self employment verification go? I am heading to Newport Monday the 24th for training. In talking to my recruiter he said all I needed was 2 affadavits from people not related to me as proof I have been self employed. I want to make sure all my ducks are in a row to avoid any delays in getting my hind end on the road.

    I talked with a Kelly At Drivers Solutions today and he said USA has made a Job offer.

    I start training on the 31 Mar 08.
    I called USA and ask about idling the trucks and the lady said that they are shut off. Is the police of USA that there is no idling of the trucks?

    I am going into the trucking Field because I would like to see the US. I am retired from the Army and have worked the last 10 years in the electronics Field as a TV repairman and a Dish network installer. The retail store where I work is closing so I think its a good time to try something new.

    I have been reading a lot of the post on this forum and as far as I can tell USA appears to be a good Company.

    Good luck in this industry soldier. i was in the NAVY and I have an associates degree in electronics engineering, and I was working on my bachelors in business mgmt. Gues what? I am a trainer with USA and I make alot more than any of those jobs could ever offer for years to come. I know this country like the back of my hand and you will get tired of looking at it, especially going out west # 62mph. Other trucks make you feel like a snail. Good luck on your career, I love it, can't say I love USA, but they have played it fair for the most part since I've been here.
