    Hey everyone, got a question. Any of the big companies run out of San Diego? New to all this so not sure how it all works. Example Schneider has a operating center in LA. Does that require you to live close to them? Do they have other places they run out of in the state? Sounds like a stupid question as I type it but rather ask than not. Thanks ya'll.

    You're moving from Knoxville to San Diego? My gas (auto) is $4 a gallon, milk is $3 a gallon and the average one bedroom apartment will cost you around $1,500 a month (if you're lucky). Beautiful city though.

    No not Knoxville, Fort Knox (Army Post). And yeah I know, I was stationed in the Navy there for 6 years and my wife is from San Diego. We've been thinking about going back but we're going to end up going back to Oregon. Family there and all.

    Status that wasn't the question. I'm going for OTR. I found the answer to my question shortly after though. Thank you for your input as well.
