    You mean someone walked up to you and said you're gone, turned around and walked off?

    if you can swing paying for your own school, then do it and then call Watkins Shepard Trucking, they'll get you out on the road solo makeing $$ in 10 days. That way you can dig yourself out of any hole you might be in...

    Yes.
    Although they were apologetic about it.
    In the C-1 school in Ft. Wayne-There is a phone near the front office. Taped to the table is a piece of paper with the number, extension to Audrey # Driver Solutions. You call and they break the bad news. However; that phone was getting one heck of a workout.
    Besides having no real reason, one thing was said to me by the office staff. USA pulls from many places to get new hires. C-1 (with all of the locations, not just FT. Wayne) can crank out ALOT of CDL holders, week after week. That Said, USA only has X amount of trucks. Supply and demand.

    they cut a buddy of mine a few years back (halfway through school i think) because he was suddenly too big (300# at 6'4")

    You are welcome.

    Study the free Hazmat tests online and you will pass first time. Just type in Free Hazmat Tests in google search and you will find them.

    You WILL get your perm CDL and you WILL find a company that will hire you if you really want it.

    Dont give up, just get out there and be persistant. If you have a good cover letter with your resume that can help out too.

    Best of luck, Driver!!
