    You know, I had an opportunity to work with Millis and decided that the training program was too long.

    Looking back, I think it's a massive mistake. I chose FFE over Millis and, while it taught me a lot of valuable life lessons, it also gave me the ability to discern a good company from a bad company. All the guys I talk to at Millis are happy, and I've never really seen one act like a putz.
    You get swift drivers pulling up on your left doing .5 MPH faster than you in the mountains and he stays there for 20 mins, or you get a C&R driver getting stuck on RR tracks, or FFE drivers getting caught drunk on the road- but you don't hear about that sort of thing from Millis.

    Yea, I was at ffe and hated every minute of, that's why I have really researched day and night on all thesE companies so I don't make the same mistake twice. I think Millis might have been my first choice, but they informed me yesterday that they don't hire out of my area, which surprised me cause I see them around constantly. I chose to go with Total and after talking to my recruiter I feel lime it's gonna be a great fit, I'm really looking forward to it!

    A friend of mine works for PTL so my advise would be any of those except for PTL.
