Starting training on 9/13 with Prime

What cpufixrmatt said, plus as much as this may seem to be an "easy" job - its not. For the first few months, the driving schedule is going to really take it out of you. You'll need your sleeper berth time to rest. You can't be tired to heck and do this job - there is the life of another person in the truck and the general public to think about as well.

In the training phase, there will be times when you are expected to get up and help with various tasks - mostly so you can be trained on how to do them as well.

Once you've settled into a groove as a solo-qualified A-seat - then think about resuming the online education.

 

That is my plan guys; I know that the job isn't going to be easy and is going to require a lot out of me, I am prepared to take that journey. setting school to the side is okay for me. i am 22, no kids or anything like that. Really I want to take this job for the year so that i won't have to pay back the fees, and hopefully gain enough experience to come back home and take a local driving job, this will just be my foot in the door to a career that i've had my eyes on for a year now.

 

Congratulations!!! See ya around the yard

 

How many students are in this weeks class ? Good luck out there

 

How much money do you have to give to prime when you get there for schooling?

 

Guys? How about it?

The last I heard is about $150 for the initial DOT physical, and your MO permit fee. That's just the same fee requirement you would pay at any driving school.

 

I already have my permit so I guess it would be 100 for me
