Prime Inc TNT Pay
Topic 33569 | Page 1
If you are being removed from the truck, your new FM will be Chris Martin. Email or call him and tell him you are "available for dispatch" meaning waiting for a trainer and you will get paid.
Technically if your trainer wants to.keep you, he is responsible to pay you. I am guessing he is Lease. This is how it works. On a company truck you would continue to get paid, without switching trainers.
If you agree to wait for him knowing the truck is down and you are home.. you wont get paid.
Fm:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.OWI:

Thank you Truckin Along With Kearsey
He is lease, I heard some horror stories bout TNT from others student's and feel blessed that I didn’t have any bad experiences within these past few weeks things been great, I would hate to switch to a new TNT and be one of those horror stories
I guess I agree to wait with out pay, with out knowing it, cause when he ask if I wanted my items off the truck I replied “naw I’ll just gab my dirty clothes” He did text me to let me know the truck made it to the shop waiting to see what wrong and from there he will see if a loaner truck would be available
Thanks again for the quick response

Prime Inc has their own CDL training program and it's divided into two phases - PSD and TNT.
The PSD (Prime Student Driver) phase is where you'll get your permit and then go on the road for 10,000 miles with a trainer. When you come back you'll get your CDL license and enter the TNT phase.
The TNT phase is the second phase of training where you'll go on the road with an experienced driver for 30,000 miles of team driving. You'll receive 14¢ per mile ($700 per week guaranteed) during this phase. Once you're finished with TNT training you will be assigned a truck to run solo.
Yeah, that's one thing you ALWAYS do on a trainers truck, remove all your items every time you are off the truck. I
