    Hey guys, got an acceptance letter from Millis. I have been looking for a
    while and had finally narrowed my choices to either Millis or Roehl. I think
    Millis is the better choice. Still have an app pending with Stevens, but I
    may past because there is way to much cost and financing that will come
    from accepting with Stevens. I hope Millis opens the Cartersville school as
    its right in my back yard. Do any current Millis drivers take their trucks
    home when on hometime? How much is a DOT physical in Georgia? Am
    I making the right choice? Wish me luck.

    I think they use to have there on message board. The drivers on there seemed to be happy. Remember this is a business. The purpose of business is to make money. Sometimes the drivers have to take it in the kiester for the almighty $. Stay flexable. This is just the way it is. When I went to Savannah Tech I had to pay $65 for my physical and drug test. That was 3 years ago

    Hey Smalltown. I don't know if I will be in the Ohio location. I am hoping the Cartersville
    school will be my choice. If know Cartersville than I might have to drive down to Ohio.
    Is the physical done at a DOT office or will I have to locate a doctor that does DOT
    physicals.

    You can go to any doctor that does DOT physicals.

    When I drove for Millis, you took a truck and trailer home with you.

    You mentioned you took a truck and trailer with you. Was there not a place
    you could store the trailer. I hope there is a yard in Georgia where I can
    drop a trailer and just bobtail home. Can't fit a trailer down our streets.

    Yep.This is more than just applying to any company that will take you.There is absolutely no sense in wasting theirs and your time if they have a criteria you can not live with. As that list states there may be more or less questions to each individuals list.It is just a starting point.
