    and after you go threw orientation and find out that you could be being trained by someone who has only been on a truck for 6 months you might think twice.

    This question could also read "which is better, the chair or the noose?"

    Seriously though, what others have said is true. Training companies are what they are, a stepping stone to a career. Go in positive, work through the potential difficulties, get your 1 year plus in, and look for a better company if you don't like the one you chose.

    Trans-Am does a lot of meat loads, so you get a lot of time in at meat packing plants. Can you say "It stinks around here"? Pam is dry freight FYI. :smt079:salute:

    They just want a body in the seat . That recruiter gets a bonus or smtg when u set foot in orientation

    Stick with your decision. Tough it out you will have good days with the bad but in the end you will be happy

    If you like trucking that is ... It's a lifestyle
