I am 55 years old, in good health (blood pressure controlled with meds), have a Class B CDL and drive a school bus. I’m divorced and have one son (grown and on his own). I will be going to CD training at a jr college near my home next summer. Although $$$ is not my sole focus as I begin my career as a professional truck driver, I want to work for a company that is known to pay on schedule without a lot of hassle. I believe miles will come as I show my value to whichever company I hire on with. I am looking into Roehl, Averitt, Knight, May, JCT, and Howard trucking companies. Can/will you suggest more. Obviously I will need a company with a paid, comprehensive training program.
