Snow, the payroll deduction is $7 and change, but it actually works out to $1 a week. Not so bad if they will defend you for citations as well as those "big truck crash" ambulance chasers.
Started here in Ocala at 7:00. And we were finished by 2. And we had a 1 hour lunch. Standard stuff but we didn't have many road tests or physicals in our group so things went pretty quickly. Did our drug screen (UA) this morning and started learning about how to lift things, climb things, carry things, walk on ice, etc, oh and they went over the HazMat test.
Pretty simple stuff. They provided transport to the one fellow to the DMV so he could get his DL and for another to get to his physical. Staff here is super friendly.
They gave us a form to elect to have payroll deductions for US Legal. Is that something I should do? I understand what they do, but at $7/wk I'm not sure if this is something I really need.
Thanks!
So after you complete schooling and finish with trainer, you have to basically go through hiring process again? Like 1st day of training?

Hey J.Snow, Just wanted to see how things are going for you out there. I hope to see you out there someday in passing.
