    Congrats on getting the CDL School out of the way... Now comes the real learning... :)

    Good luck on your search... I too was looking seriously at USX but opted to go with a smaller carrier and very glad I do so.

    Although USX is probably one of the better big carriers out there, I would keep looking for a bit. You might either find a better fit or affirm that USX is the place for you.

    Might start to specifically look at the smaller tier of carriers beyond the mega carriers too.

    If you live in certain areas you do not have to team. I live in one of those areas.

    Never known them to be more of a team driver. They make you team with a student to get easy miles out of you. What would you like me to elaborate on, I just know they throw in dollar general sucker accounts to make you now team with a student driver.

    INDIANAPOLIS,Ind. (June 13, 2015)–It was a rough first day on the job for a 22-year-old truck driver who backed his semi into the corner of a north side business Saturday.

    Emergency crews were called to the 700 block of East 38th Street at 4:20 p.m.

    A 22-year-old driver for US Xpress Enterprises was making a delivery to the Dollar Tree store.

    The driver told police he misjudged the turn when he tried to back the truck in.

    The trailer struck a building overhang causing an estimated $30,000 damage.

    The Dollar Tree was evacuated as a precaution. About 8 customers were inside the store,

    No one was injured.

    What is it about you that makes you such a hot commodity ? This is odd that so many companies want to hire you.
