So I was at my receiver, and had to an alley dock. The only way to complete the maneuver was to hug a tree line. My truck is now bent near the passenger side steps. is my company going to come after me when I turn in my truck? This happened a few days ago and I did not realize until today... I'm really nervous about it do to the fact that I am new and don't want to destroy my DAC

Wanting to get into the field, have no experience, who is the best school to go go?
I would recommend Prime Inc. They have what I would honestly call the best company sponsored training program. I went to their school without a CDL on a Monday, by Saturday I already had my permit and was in a truck with an instructor. 2 weeks later, obtained my CDL. 30,000 miles of team training (700$) a week, I was assigned my first truck as a solo driver making .43 a mile. I started the process February 29th and got my truck last week. If you prefer hands on learning as opposed to classroom such as I, than I highly recommend it.

hey guys, so I'm sitting at a pilot with my truck off. I noticed that my air brakes are slowly but surely losig PSI. Is this normal? I don't remember learning this in school. I already build the air back up once and it's already back down to 90 psi.

anybody know the process of what happens when you turn in your truck? I'm not leaving my company, I enjoy working here. I'm just curious how the process works. do you just drop it off or do they have to inspect it?

Just landed in Springfield, MO!
Hey! I just left this morning with my instructor. We are in Springfield getting loaded. Prime gives you a free lunch when you check in, make sure you grab it!!!
Waiting for the shuttle and hoping there is food near where I'm staying. I'm starving.
Prime PSDS students starting tomorrow give a shout!

Just received my greyhound ticket!
Thanks for the support!
-also, I'm attending Prime PSD for anyone who was curious. I'm slightly nervous but I assume that's natural.. just going to take it day by day and absorb as much information as possible.

I messed up
I'm not quitting, I'm just worried that if I do quit, even in a year or two that it will get me in trouble. Thank you for such a thorough response by the way
