Ok I was wondering mainly because I had gotten a speeding ticket a year or two back. And I have put it on an application. My fear would be quitting my job starting with a company in their program and than about a week or so in to it they terminate me because of said ticket. Than I would be out a cdl,company to work for ,and previous job

First I will say I.don't have anything to hide and never done a drug in my life my question though is when do companies do these tests to see if you meet their requirements I know you have pre hire letters but I.understand these are not contracts for employment. Do they wait until you have started a class to do these checks or before they even offer you company sponsored training?

So I'm looking at a couple different companies. One I'm interested said not hiring in your area. However I don't plan on this being my area after I start driving. They do hire in the region I plan to go. I am the type that would like to have a job before leaving one though. Any suggestions?

Well that was unexpected! It does make sense though since as you pointed out I was focused on my driver side. In all honesty backing did not make me as nervous as pulling forward for the fact that I had two bright yellow posts on each side of the bay I was backing into however without them I would have been way off. Hopefully when I start my training I will get a good amount of practice.

So they are letting you go regional after two weeks? Also this is a bit of an odd request but could you give us an update after you go to regional. Do you actually get weekends? Does it actually change the guilt you have or the stress it puts on her?. I'm only asking because this is the reason I am not already doing it.

So what is the most common temperatures set for allowing the truck to idle. I am most comfortable at about 60-68°f

It looks like the left side to me. Obviously getting out and checking is the best option but is there a way to become more aware of what that blind side is doing so to speak? I will use my example of what I had done ( keep in mind I had plenty of room like almost give me fourty acres type of room) going forward that is if I were in a truck stop how would I know that left rear corner wouldn't hook a truck on my way out?

Well I had to do some work on a tractor and trailer today. I had to take the truck out of the shop go hook up to the trailer go.around the the shop going to the right. Than pull up and back into the shop. it wasn't a straight line back it was at an angle than straighten up and into the shop. I completed all the maneuvers successfully however I found out when I couldn't see the left rear corner of my trailer I got really nervous. Both going forward and backward. Does this go away? Is there something I should do different?

Prime Inc. and my supply list.
I'm.not sure about the company individually but I had done extensively travel before for a living. I found space bags are nice to help squeeze more in than what you need. I used to use two types the kind with the need of a vacuum for heavy clothes and the type you use by hand for lighter clothes.just my 2¢
