Got a job offer from Cypress Truck Lines

Hey guys! Just wanted to update you guys on my job search, so as the title say, I got on with Cypress Truck Lines, Orientation is 5 days, three days at home and two days at the yard/terminal. Technically, I start Orientation on Monday but they already send me everything I need to do on Tenstreet, so I have plenty of time to do them. I leave for Jacksonville on Wednesday for the rest of the orientation, so I wanted to know for those of you that have worked for Cypress what should I expect, and in general, do you guys have any advice for me, before I start this new career and go OTR, I'm 25 and like to keep to myself, I plan on doing trucking for a long time but depend on how things are in the future I might go back to my old industry. Btw, they made me do a drug and physical test, does my old DOT card still active, can I still use it and when it expires use the new one I have now? My old one is expiring in 2025 and the new one is expiring in 2026 Thanks!

 

I already have the new DOT card, so I need to update it to the DMV too? Won't I pay do for that?

 

I would take your new card to DMV to give them a copy, then you don’t have to keep track of when your old card expires.
As far as there concerned, your old card is expired when you passed the new physical.[/QUOTE]

Cool! Thanks!

 

Thanks man! I can just do it online.

 

Thank you! I plan on staying for at least 1 year, maybe 2 years if they are decent, and since they are somewhat close to me ( Headquartered in Florida ) so they can get me home whenever I want to, plus I would assume 2 years of FlatBed experience would look good in any employer's eyes right? I'll do my time then jump into Tanker and make my money.
