Most Important Questions From New Drivers Threads

[Nomadbeginner]

Hi all,
Yes Here comes another Newbie, but,,,,, I am in CDL school privately, so I have no company ties or that I specifically have to work for.
I am on the I-84 corridor , La Grande Oregon, aka Eastern Oregon.

So I go drive by the truck stop occasionally and see that there are about 15 Regular companies comming thru my home town, Anyway, to make this shorter, I am leaning towards May Trucking, they are in Oregon, go by my house, Have a fairly desent rep on this forum and like newbies that are already schooled so that they can mentor you for as long as the mentor thinks its needed, most cases I hear is 2-4 weeks.

NOW, my question,,, "Any Comments ?"

Thanks

training could any body tell me what to expect & how long
is werner a good or bad place to start? all i see are bad things but they don't look that bad to me

any input would be helpful

I had a friend from school who went with werner, had no problems while out with his trainer but it took them 26 days to get him into a truck of his own. Fortuneatly, he was younger and still lived at home.
