[QUOTE="BLACKBOX, post: 619015, member: 6700"] I had to re certify on Friday and had probably one of the easiest exams ever. The exams are less rigorous and it seems like they want you in and out in a hurray. Exams used to include: running in place (pulse check), drug pee test,hearing test,find the number hidden in the color test and as crazy as it may sound he even skipped the hernia test. He gave me a cursory exam, reflex test,thumping his fingers around your torso,a look in your ears then that was it. I was sure he was going to make me do deep knee bends or the close your eyes and touch your finger to your nose and then he asked, are you a new hire or is this a re certification? I said "re-cert" and he said ok your done. Note: The pee test was just for sugar levels. The gal said I could flush (you could not do this before) when I was done because they were not doing a drug test. All I know is that I got a 2-year cert in the fastest turnaround for a DOT physical ever. [/QUOTE]
