    No one pushes leases at Prime... it will get you asked to leave. A-seats start at 42-cpm in a lightweight plus fuel bonus.

    I'll be heading out there Monday from Chicago. Hope to meet some of you face to face. I can't thank everyone enough for all of the advice. It's nice to know at least an outline of what's to come; especially from people who aren't directly incentivized for bringing in new driver prospects. After a two month process of figuring out which company would be most compatible with my wants, I'm glad Prime came out on top.

    Oh, we can all participate in the referral bonuses... but it would do us little good to stretch the truth. IMO, it's not worth loosing your integrity for the pittance that the referral bonus is.

    I am here at the campus inn right now. Got here Monday afternoon. Best advice I could give you is tell them everything. Even if you have a juvenile record tell them because they do find out. There were several people here were questioned about things that happened as a juvenile and also supposedly sealed records. You need your last 5 years employment history...complete. I had got a job at Home Depot and didn't even go to the orientation because I refused the job once I found out pay and hours. Guess what they knew about it. I never even worked there and I was asked why I didn't tell them. I didn't even think it would count as employed. If you are employed. When you quit your current job make sure you have some way to verify you are no longer employed there. I had an issue with that. It's not to late to tell them about it until you get here. Call your recruiter and tell them even if you don't think it's a problem. Also with medical make sure if you have had an injury you tell them and have a to verify you are released to full duty. Get their fax numbers together before you get here. The doctors and your employers. Some people say they will hire anybody. From what I have seen and had issues with that's not true. Good luck to you

    I think they do but it's more in depth when you get here. I don't know why they do it like that but that's what they do. So in other words if you know you have something on your background and you don't want to tell them it's better you stay home because that's where they will send you anyway.
