I will make you feel better. On my first 34 hr reset I was at truck stop getting ready to head out. Started truck and released brakes(apparently) and the went into sleeper for something. Truck slowly rolled prob 300 feet into field luckily not hitting a damn thing. As I was leaving about 20 plus truckers were coming out of there trucks w a round of wonderful sarcastic applause. Thank god I left CB off. And this ladies and gentlemen is the first time this gem of a story has been released to the public right here live on trucking truth.

Start CDL School for Stevens Transport Mon. 6/6/16 (Whew, glad that one is in that date!!)
Be prepared for some real "characters" when you get to orientation in Dallas. Keep your chin up and plow thru it. You will love it when you get that nice shiny truck.

This sounds like CR England, and if it is you will be getting regular raises fairly frequently. It's just how their contract works. It is front loaded to their advantage because they got tired of training their competition's drivers. This way they get most of their training money back before the job hoppers have a chance to hop.
Or from another post PAM in your first 6 months w trainer!

They sell tests at cvs and Walgreens. To at least give you an idea. I wouldn't put a lot of faith in them.

Recent CDL graduate of Alabama. Looking for a decent company.
I do not know if they hire from Alabama but Epes Transport out of Greensboro Nc hired recent grads (if your school is approved) and say they get you home every 5-7 days
