For the most part you are correct, however i was in wyoming in Nov. and it got to -8 that night, i sent a message and called, which i was told to idle all night and put anti gel in fuel..... was reimbursed for anti gel but charged for idle....... just saying it isn't an automatic to qc the dm to get things covered, most of the time yes,,,, but sometimes ????????????
I have moved on to a local job out of Budweiser in Fairfield CA, but still have no problem recommending May, just go into it eyes open.
What's happening?

What happens if you have local experience but no OTR, do they still send you with a trainer?

Basically yes, and to make sure that you are able to handle the way
of life that is solo OTR. You will learn how May does things, or would like them done. It not an EASY thing being OTR and it has some very
stressful time, but i you hit it off with your trainer, you can also
use his/her experience as a tool for yourself by calling and asking
questions. Also most drivers will try to answer any questions or lend a hand if needed. The q-comm is a different story. Be sure to get your laminated macro sheet for the Q-comm (very handy). Plus there is always this forum to lend a hand....

It amazes me when people say that a driver with little time on the road shouldn't teach another driver.. As if someone with 20 years could TEACH a guy everything he knows, AHHH, OKAY! LOL At the same time they say "if you don't learn something new everyday you should hang up the keys " Slightly contradictory I would say!
The sad part is finding a GOOD TEACHER is hard. You might find a guy/gal with unbelievable skills but is a horrible teacher and vice verse..
I'm done with my rant... You can continue to your regularly scheduled program!Irishtrucker Thanks this.
