Whatever you want to call them... Student or trainee... They all HAVE to team eventually during the "training phase"
B C & D all do 40k team miles minimum. D seats are students and they get a 10k miles credit when they upgrade to B seat for their time on the instructors truck.
Students must team?

BTW there is no getting out of the training phase (teaming with a trainer) except to quit.
Ask my last trainee.
No trainer would be wiling to be paid "trainer miles" on a truck running solo loads. Trainer pay is less than solo pay... It's the team miles that make the pay worth while.
My last trainee was given the option of another trainer. After describing what kind of pace he wanted to run (truck parked for at least 8 to 10 hours a day for his "rest full sleep) the new trainer told him he wouldn't take him and that he should stick with me and "suck it up and get some sleeping pills to get some rest on a moving truck"
Can't say I agree with that last part. -
Your not a trainer, you've never trained a trainee. (at Prime)
Im not a lease operator, and I've never leased a truck.
In these two areas, which of us has shown more to the other in courtesy? -

Yes, he is a wealth of info and a decent guy...
He's done this before and "in my opinion" or "if I recall" don't help anyone if the information is wrong.
Maybe he can remind everyone of the topic where he was "joking" and trying to "scare" the newbs. He knows... The one where he told them they could get fired. The resulting mea culpa after I called him out was pretty flippant.
Every "student" WILL team train at Prime with a trainer. It's a fact. They won't do it classified as a student, but will do it for sure when they upgrade to B. Cant get to A without going through B.
At least I will call you out here in the open. I'm not saying anything about those others that some of their "online friends" have said in PM -
