That is a big plus to be a trainer. If you can pick who get in your truck with you that would sell me on being a trainer with ya

If you don't want the trainee on the truck with you, you can tell your FM and we'll get you another student. However, you have to at least give the student a chance and get on the truck with you for a little while. Trainers receive solo pay for all miles driven in the truck, even the miles the student drives. They also receive $350 per 150 hour student upgrade, $200 on 100 hour student upgrade. After that, they receive 1 cent per mile for every mile the student runs after the upgrade for 6 months. Trainers are also eligible for a brand new truck every 18 months. Hope you like Volvo 780's

sounds like a good program as long as you dont run the truck as a team truck. Trainer should be watching the student and teaching

We run the super solo idea, trainers/trainees run about 3500-4000 miles per week. I agree with you, can't teach a trainee much if your sleeping.

No doubt they're a brave bunch, my hat is definately off to them. A couple of the drivers I've hired call me with some of their funny stories about trainees on their truck. I forgot that we also pay $20 per day as long as the student is on the truck and truck is available for dispatch.
