Profile For Truckers Wife

Yeah, I'm definitely leaning that way. I'm excited to get started once my daughter leaves for college. I wish I would have had this kind of support when I went into nursing many moons ago.

Depending on how long your husband has been driving....it could be 90 days or 9 mos. And he needs at least one winter of driving and would have to take a class to be a trainer.

I have several friends who trained their wives at prime. At the time they did it..last year...spouses of current employees did not have to agree to the one year contract. Meaning you might be better off getting the CDL at prime and not having to pay for school.

Plus, he'd get a referal bonus for bringing you in.

Give them call and ask a recruiter.

Yeah I'm noticing that just trying to filter out and take away what I can. I really appreciate all the input;)

Thank you Sue!! I've heard that Prime was the better of the two, I've also heard that Schneider also offers it.

Careful what you hear. Not always credible.

We have happy and successful drivers at all three of the companies mentioned; Schneider, Prime and Swift.

My husband is an OTR driver. I am considering changing careers from geriatric nurse to well I don't need to write it in crayon for y'all. Our daughter will be heading off to college, I plan on taking a CDL training course at a local community college. I'm excited and nervous about the change. I am burned out as a nurse and really looking forward to this time with my wonderful husband, well after the hair pulling training that is. I really want my husband to train me not only for obvious reasons but I respect him and trust he'll train me the best of his ability. What companies allow spouse training that are good to work for as a team? How long does the "trainer" have to be with that company before training? Any advice?
