It was the way that it was worded. Its a ll good though. Steven's school was great. The trucking part can go pleasure themselves. And God help you if you sign up for an alliance fleece.

About 8 months. It was all I could handle. Some people like the hand holding. Id on't want it nor need it.

Some DMs are great, others are not. Some people do well with Stevens, while others move on. It's a training company. You get your start and move on. Every once in a while an old codger like me stays on. But it's not the norm.

I'm not a driver yet, don't even have a permit and am trying to decide the best route/company to head for.
So far it's looking like I'd be best off getting the CDL on my own if I can then finding a company. I'm located around Ft. Worth.Voodoo Pyg Thanks this. -
Every trainer is different. I was blessed with two very good ones for the 42 days I was OTR training. Even though I was dismissed April 24th of last year, I still remembered what they taught me at the job I just had. You'll receive $350 for training. I 'm not sure if they changed that or not. Just be prepared to make a few compromises here and there and meet them halfway. After all you are living in his/her home for that time.
Tell ya what get a hold of @TLeaHeart, @Emulsified, @Corporal_Clegg . These guys worked there for some years and can't steer you wrong. They tend to tell the truth. Also give Stevens a call for the full rundown. They'll be glad to send you a Dossier of everything they do. And if you still choose them, the recruiters will stay in contact with you up until your training day. You don't have to be swayed by the bad reviews. I wasn't. And even though I issued one out of anger last year, I still have them to thank. As I always say: The only way to know is to experience it yourself. If you want some of my personal takes (Good/Bad), PM me anytime.

Yeah, the idea of getting my CDL through a school first is to avoid owing the company, and I'm reading that company schools seem more like bootcamps where they stamp you into a driver ASAP and send you home if you don't cut it and the schools while still kinda fast paced will work with you more rather than toss you out.
I expect fully no matter where I end up, I am going to be treated like the complete newbie I am.
I will certainly take you up on that offer to PM you, soon as I have the 6 posts required to do so.
I've been "researching" this for a month and am still about as confused as ever with so many questions and I am getting to the point where I need to make a move or risk losing the ability to do so.Voodoo Pyg Thanks this.
