    Yea right....go to Swift where they can treat you like shoe scum. I'm getting ready to have to go otr with a male stranger for 150 required hours of training. BS! I will guarantee you that I will probably be a better, safer driver than the one I am supposed to live with for 150 hours. You can bet your ##### I will be documenting and qualcomming or E Logging every second my body is btw.

    Loool how arrogant.... I dont doubt you are a good driver but the guy who is goin to train you may be a really good driver too. Must be frustrating to have to start over again but your post look like a 12 years old kid thats funny.

    If you are interested in being a tanker yanker then you can also look into hauling fuel. The pay is good and home every night and on days off. Not all fuel hauling outfits will hire new drivers but some will. I was fresh out of school and got hired on with Gemini/Love's where I have been working for the past sixteen months now and love it. Not to mention that it was a 25k per year raise over my previous job.

    They are endorsement tests you take at your local DMV. Then those endorsements are added to your cdl. To haul fuel you will want hazmat, doubles/triples and tankers. Your DMV should have some sort of study book you can get to study for those endorsement tests. Here I'm Wyoming they are taken over a computer just like air brakes and all of that.
