    They do have a little bit going down there but not much to my knowledge. In 1.5 years I have been there once, to the Budweiser Brewery in Jacksonville. I've heard of some work coming out of a Yuengling Brewery in or near Tampa

    I've been to the Budweiser in Jacksonville once, and beer distributors in Ocala, Orlando, Tampa, and Marianna.

    No I do not think it is a good lane for Millis but if you are staying out 3-4 weeks at a time it may be manageable because they will have to worry about getting you in and out less often. Florida is a soft state for outbound freight for most companies.

    Once you get started and time on your own, I would ask that question of your dispatcher before making the move so you know what your options are.

    Every trainer is different. Now, I'm sure a number of the really bad ones have been weeded out - you're supposed to call Greg in training if your trainer is abusive or otherwise useless - but you have to also keep in mind that everyone is different and their training styles are different as well. The guy who trained me was.... not the kind of guy I would have associated with off the job, but he taught me what I needed to know and made sure I was a safe driver.
