Well after spending a week in Van Buren I finally got my second training week underway. Picked up by Carl, a million mile member and veteran of USA since 1988. WOW!! Its not very often a company driver spends 22 years with the same company in my opinion.. So he has a dedicated route from Okla. City to Ohio and back.

Trucking, Las Vegas, and more Trucking

So it's been a few weeks since I posted. But it's been a fun few weeks. I ended up getting up to Philly with a load to set me up to get home for my Vegas trip.

Hi. Im new to the trucking industry...i always wanted to drive a truck and i finally went to National Tractor Trailer school in liverpool, NY graduated in march and im still looking for a job. Most trucking companies tell me because of my licence they can't hire me. I have 3 suspensions in the last 3 years and i got about a year and a half for them to come off. I never knew it was going to be this hard to find something. Im just not sure what to do? I got a no front plate ticket, i plead guilty...

Update

Posted 07.13.2009 at 10.15 AM by Kinghunter
I passed my combination test today and found out I will be getting a hotel room for my training. So I have passed my air brakes test and combination test. All that is left is general knowledge test. I am anxious to learn as much as I can but I want to do it the right way.

So that is it for now. Till then, see you later.
