    TnRonin, how are you doing at Averitt? How was orientation and training? Are you getting the miles that you expected? Thanks...

    I'm about to start my last week Monday. We have been getting the miles but you have to remember I'm in a training truck and they will make sure we get the loads. I have been VERY impressed with the company so far. Orientation was good, there was a lot of info thrown at you, make sure you take notes and make a cheat sheet of numbers. The computer training can be numbing, but you have to pay attention. It will come back eventually.

    I've learned a lot, I don't know how a company could out you through three weeks of training then send you out. There is a lot to know out there. HTH

    I was just wondering because I started reading your post from when it started. I think it is interesting to check to see how things work out. I am leaning toward Maverick more than Averitt now. I am glad that it is going great for you. I have read nothing but great things about Averitt. So, it has been a hard choice. I have just a couple weeks left at school.

    I like the fact that Averitt has good comms, the leadership is accessible, and the equipment is in good shape. I'm also impressed with the people, no buttheads that I've met so far. Nice uniforms, make you proud and aware of what you represent.

    applied to Averitt on 10-21...going to orientation this Monday 11-30...everything went pretty smooth...part of the variable on the time frame is dependent on when they can get you set up with a trainer in your area...
