[QUOTE="gray squirrel, post: 684526, member: 5368"] Just an update for those interested. I had to do a 40 hour ( non-productive) feeder training in Columbus, Ohio. My training supervisor was awesome!! It was a one on one training. He took me from never driving a feeder, to being very comfortable hooking up and driving doubles. I had to drive 144 miles round trip from my home to Columbus. I had to study for, pay for, and get my cdl permit. I now will schedule and pay for my cdl drivers license, which is $235. I can take it wherever I find available. UPS does not provide, or pay for a tractor or trailer to take the cdl test. I had to find a private testing facility that rents the tractor trailer combination. I will take my test this week. I then have to do one week of productive training with the training supervisor. If and when I pass my test, and one week productive training, UPS will pay me for the first week of non productive training. It was a long, hard week of training, but it will be worth it in the long run. I would do it all again to be able to drive feeders. [/QUOTE]
