I am back, but no more stupid posts. I am taking a driver position with TWT Refrigerated Services.
I am beginning this thread, so that it might calm the fears of other drivers, out there, that are worried about starting their orientation.
I have no idea what is coming up, but at the end of each day, I will post what we did that day.
TWT's orientation is Monday thru Thursday, 7:00am-5:00pm.
Only truthful and honest commentary, from now on.
Welcome back Jerry!!!
Looking forward to your, commentary. I missed having you around. But I am one of those ppl that have a weird and twisted, sarcastic, and sometimes extremely dry humor.
Glad you are giving it another go.
Could you give me a little more information on TWT? I love learning about the many many many companies out there.

I start orientation with Veriha, same times and dates. Monday through Thursday, 7:00-5:00 this coming week. I also will keep people posted through a thread here. AND, we can compare notes to what each orientation does alike and/or differently. Since I know absolutely NO ONE in Marinette, WI, I will have plenty of time for updates here.

Thank you for the kind words. This is all I have been told so far by Roxanne , my recruiter. She has been very professional. : There are three companies under the Trans System Company, TWT Refrigerated Services, Systems Transport Flatbed, and J.J. Williams Bulk materials. They are based near Spokane, WA, Their flatbed division runs all 48. Their reefer division runs runs the west. And their chemical/bulk trans port Division goes in the us and Canada. I chose Reefer because it would be the easiest trucking so I can get back into the swing of things, Just got a phone call, gotta go. Jerry
