[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 4045383, member: 52978"] When I went into feeders, our training was on 2 consecutive weekends, plus a Saturday on the 3rd weekend, for a total of 5 days, all unpaid. The last day of training was a qualifying ride and after that they told you if you passed or not. They were all 12+hour days. We had about 75% washout/quit/failure rate. When you were called into feeders for your first actual day of work, you started getting paid the prevailing feeder rate. Kinda fuzzy, but I believe I got my CDL right before feeder school on my own. I actually took the test in a 12 passenger dodge van. I guess it qualified as a commercial vehicle. [/QUOTE]
