Starting a new career

Sorry, I am not explaining myself well. The travel time I am talking about is when I do get time off. Prime is in Mo and I live in Wisconsin. Unless I take the truck home with me I still need to get back and forth from the terminal and home.

The only reason I would leave Prime is if I get 3 days off, 2 of those would be spent traveling from prime to home and back

Daniel, thanks for the input. Roehl is in my hometown. they are one that state 5 yrs for an owi. That limits me for another 6 months.

Starting a new career

Good morning everyone, I have been reading posts on here for awhile and found a lot of good advice. Please steer me in the right direction. I am looking at Prime for getting my CDL. I live in Wisconsin so getting home and back to the terminal will take about 20 hrs travel time. Prime is about the only company that will train me with a 4 yr old owi. It will be 5 yrs old 4/15/16. Prime states that if you opt out of the contract after 6 months that you owe 1750.00 for the school. I would then have more options closer to home. Is this taking advantage of Prime? Would I be leaving a company in good standing? I don't want to burn bridges. OTR is the route I want to go and understand I can be out 4-8 weeks at a time. Any advice would be appreciated
