Hello From RI

Hi,

I'm Bob, I'm 2 months short of 50 and I'm switching careers. After 30 years in the auto industry and 16 yrs as Service Manager, I'm fried.

I start training At Teamsters Local 251 tomorrow, partly paid for by the state.

Run away from CR England as fast as you can.

Shoot me a PM...there's a Teamster outfit I know of looking for class A drivers. It's hard work (drivers hand-load trailers) but local.
