Hello, I am a recent grad at a Top Notch Truck Driver Training School here in North Carolina. 11 Weeks of schooling and driving every day. Problem is, I did not start driving after graduation due to prior commitments overseas. 10 Spd manual is what we trained on. Due to my break between school and now, I would feel more comfortable with a trainer before going solo. Who knows? Maybe could turn into a full-time Co-Driver position? I believe I can get along with anyone due to my 20+ years of Active Duty Military service. That being said, and I know I will get some negative comments, I'd prefer to Co-Drive with a Female. Race is not an issue but Non-Smoking is an issue. I quit in 2012 and do not want to be tempted. I also Speak Japanese (I know, Spanish would be more useful and I would love to learn) if someone would like to learn...LOL.
I am not one of those types who need to be home every week but if you are, I can always hang out somewhere for a couple of days! HMU if anyone would like to get in touch with me. The best way to reach me is via EMAIL which is: quidmaker@gmail.com. Please put POSSIBLE CO-DRIVER in the subject line so I will not think it is junk mail. Peace to everyone and hope all were able to enjoy a nice Thanksgiving holiday.

@QuidMaker --
Above--you don't specify how long ago you got your CDL--or what type(s) of freight you might like to try.
With that said--while you are trying to get into the world of trucking, if you don't yet have any/all the CDL endorsements (tanker, hazmat, doubles/triples)--now is a great time to go ahead, and get them.
You'll find later that...in most cases...that's where the real money is.
A CDL-A, plus all the endorsements, and an honorable discharge are very attractive to carriers who hire new(er) drivers.
If you aspire to later doing tanker duty--go ahead and get a TWIC card, too.
Also--some types of freight will do better than others in a recession.
Choose carefully.

There's some good team outfits in NC and SC.
I'll list some and then you can check them out. They hire new cdl school grads also.
