    Former prime tnt trainer… DO NOT GO COMPANY AT PRIME! Why go company at the best leasing company in the United States? Life tough rn for everyone but hell will freeze over before prime go bankrupt. Take advantage of their ridiculous fuel discounts! Take advantage of their customer freight. Tanker is probably the best move you can make for your career. It will pay millions if you work it right! Exciting times! Go to the oasis for me and get the whiskey burger! I can’t no more!

      TNT was cool . It’s all about what type of trainer you get …everybody’s personality might not match yours … luckily me and my trainer were the same age , both from big cities so we locked in instantly . The time goes by pretty fast once you get in the groove of things . But If your thinking about coming I say go for it . If it’s not something you like then at least you always have that CDL in your back pocket . Best of luck to you 💯💯💯
