Gotta love this website

In my research I have found that the community college route seems to be the most "unencumbered" path. I've always wondered about the private schools and potential ties or kickbacks for steering students to one particular company. The schools owned by the companies have obvious pitfalls..................

The above is only my opinion and may be proven incorrect at anytime............

 

Nope I didn't. I learned a long time ago if you go into something expecting too much you willl always be disappointed.. go into this with open eyes.. blinder just make you blind

 

Keeping in mind that most people who are upset only post negative stuff while people who are happy tend to enjoy it with no words needing to be said. So you will always find more complaints then positives.

Think about it like this. You run a retail store like walmart or target. You place a box for team members to write down and place their opinions in. Now 2/5 people will have positive experience while the rest are looking at the stuff they don't have or don't get. So 150 employees, 90 negative and 60 positive. (if my math is right). But point is that company's cant always please everyone.

 

Go into it with an open mind. Hope for the best, expect that you might be disappointed about some things, know that some people will screw their own family over for a penny, be grateful when things turn out like you want.

Wow sounds like life.

There is good & bad at all companies, some are worse than others. Try to find one that fits your needs the best & get the experience you need to be selective in your next choice.

 

Yup, I agree. Reading through the majority of forum posts, almost makes it seems like your chance of success in trucking is equal to that of a terminal cancer patient surviving.

 

I encourage you each to continue sifting through the threads. There is wonderful advice here and well, yes...........there is a great deal of griping and moaning. LOL There's even some posts of me griping and moaning.

My husband and I both entered the industry through a company school and training. We're happy with that company. I wish you each the very best.

 

I will be expecting the worse and hoping for the best...:smt023

 

HEY..,That is my take on life,and has been for sometime. I know you didn't steal that from me,cause I have never told no one..For Gods sake though,that's me,find positive things man,Good Luck.
