    Thats messed up, because they said and the paper I recieved said they reimburse up to $100. But for sure it's not a free ride! That's 1 thing that sux, but oh well. I'm still headed down there this next Sunday.

    Good luck cause it didnt work to well for me with Stevens. Have a local job back home now. Just remember to NOT believe what your recruiter told you! My recruiter (Dolpus was his name) told me sooooo many things that were not true. Even went as far as giving us his phone number if we had any problems!! To bad it wasnt a working number! Stevens is a good training company but after you get your time OTR you will have more oppritunities to improve your status with a better paying company.
