    Great, thanks for such an immediate answer! I'll see if I can confirm that by calling an internal recruiter tomorrow, because that would be fantastic for me. I live closer to Nebraska, but I'd love an excuse to visit my brother in Tempe for a few days before training.

    Actually, I haven't called Werner yet because I've been too busy these past few days, haha. Definitely going to call tomorrow, though. I passed my CDL test on Friday and I'm ready to go wherever they tell me to now.

    Turns out that I can attend orientation down in Phoenix. However, the internal recruiter checked with her supervisor and said it was okay, but specified that the bus fare wouldn't be covered at all (as opposed to what I heard from a recruiter in-person at my driving school; he said that they'd cover the difference of the fare to Omaha, and I'd pay the rest). I gotta order my ticket soon anyway, so I'll probably just keep all my receipts until I get there...

    The people in Phoenix were great. Rosa (orientation director) was a great person to work with. A few of the drivers were kind of standoffish, and had some negative things to say, but I think they were the type to whine about a sunny day. Most of the other drivers were great to talk to and very friendly.
    Good luck to you. Keep a positive attitude and they will treat you well.
