An Unexpected Development

Today the recruiter from Werner gave me a call and let me know what I would need to do to get back driving with them. Unfortunitly since it has been over five years since my last in truck driving experience, I will have to start over from scratch. While I was expecting the need to take a refresher course, and probably do some time with a trainer to make sure that I am up to snuff, I most certainly was not expecting this.

So in order to get back in a truck with Werner, I will need to go back to a driving school, and then go out with a trainer for 275 hours before I would beon the road alone again. After checking around a bit I found that this was pretty much standard due to insurance issues. So the extra I have been paying to keep my CDL was basically wasted, of course a Class B job may not be a stringent.

Now to look at schools.
