[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 4045573, member: 13921"] Has that changed?? I thought that it used to be worded something along the lines of 'completing 2 years of service on the qualified list.' It might have even been 3 years. I thought that amongst the pile of paperwork that I signed was a sheet that stated that I agreed that my week of training pay would be forfeited if I was DQd or removed myself from the qualified list within x years of being qualified. When I went, I was paid 40 hours of straight time, I stayed in a hotel near the hub where I trained and I received a per diem for food. I had to turn in receipts for the food, so I went out for steak one night, on the way home, bought the mother lode of BBQ and turned in those receipts. It was easier than saving the receipts for the grocery shopping that I did, the sandwiches that I got from the same grocery, etc. My 1st day of training, I rode my motorcycle down, thinking that I would commute everyday. The 2nd day, I rode down and stayed in the hotel. I needed the quiet time to read and study the materials. My road test was done by a UPS employee that was state certified to give the CDL road test. I did my non-productive week in late June and did not do my production week until August. I was paid for my non-productive week the week following, just like a normal paycheck. [/QUOTE]
