Good add-on article to this story

Wishing you the best!

Right on!

Hey John! My recruiter told me pretty much weekly they're bringing in recruits.

Thanks all! Kearsey, I'm subscribed to your YouTube channel, and also put you as a Driver Reference here as well!

Thank you Old School!

My entry is a recap of my time at Prime, in training for the CDL. Researched all the Mega's, had it whittled down, went with Prime due to the amount of positive reports across the Web. Had Roehl up there too, but really didn't want to learn on a manual, seeing how the industry is shifting away from them as is (no pun intended)....

Got to Springfield on 7/5, started Orientation 7/6. Was well prepared by the High Road program for my CLP, can't say enough about Brett and Co. putting that together! And then studied Daniel B's pre-trip. Watched Prime Inc Daniel's video's on YouTube to practice the pre-trip, sound on, then off, to simulate myself performing it. No Hippie Trucking's Prime Salt Lake City In-Cab was great as well. When you get here, the Instructors tell you not to watch any videos, but those helped me out big time. That being said, do any and everything the way your Instructors tell you to, like Dennis Hopper says in the movie ''SPEED": "DO NOT attempt to grow a brain!". Trust the process.

Accommodations were fine, one person per room (COVID), I found the food to be more than edible in the Campus Inn cafeteria. Everyone overall really friendly, approachable, spirit of succeeding is in the air. Fast friendships made, very similar to Military basic training. Many experienced Drivers would wish you well in passing.

The few days prior to being 'badged' go by fast, thought the Simulator was cool, if not altogether realistic. Anything to get the feet wet. Then off to the Training Pad, to get to the heart of it all.

My trainer's name is Mike, he was one of 2019's Top Trainers, found that out looking through Prime's YouTube channel, great guy, really laid it down and showed me and the other Trainee on his truck what we needed to do. After some mental fumbles, had me backing better than I had imagined I would, so quickly. Then out for some driving around the area, from Orientation to behind the wheel in no time. Not rushed, felt comfortable with the progression.

Began "PSD" training 7/10, tested out today, and Trifecta'd, joining Rob D, Mitchell and the many others! Now, awaiting my ''TNT'' trainer.

All in all, Prime Inc. is a 'prime time' organization, very happy with the decision to come here!

With a nod to Rod 'Andy' D--''Salvation Lies Within''.

You rocked it!

Third time's the charm! You can do it!

Honest assessment of a big leap, and great to see from other posts you're out there churning out the miles!

Great seeing the update, and you are CRUSHING these TNT miles!!

You couldn't have picked a better resource than this one, best of luck on your journey!

God Speed to you Travis!

Great updates, hilarious avatar change! You're flying along, be in your own Rig in no time!

Your 'S.C.R.A.P.E.' acronym is very helpful as well!

Wow! Gotta be uphill from here!

When you apply to Roehl, they just slot you where they need someone? Can you apply to a specific Division?

Appreciate you sharing your journey!

Wild-Bill, I'm not in the Game yet, but one thing I think of is...you're kinda stuck with the contract, breaking it could be costly. And if you can make it through this 1st year, certainly (hopefully!!) these tough times will have passed, you'll have the experience that you'll need to look for other opportunities. You've been an inspiration to many with your Training Diary, and look to be on your way to being a kick ass Freight Hauler!

Hey Matt-have you taken the DOT physical already as well?

Thank you Mitchell for bringing us along on this journey, sounds like you're just about to knock this out of the park and get that CDL!
