Truck driving schools are like slot machines for companies (SCAM!)

That lovely little three word phrase does cover quite a bit of stuff doesn't it!

 

Those days are gone...

I started out that way and bought my first truck at 19 years old....I couldn't do that today!


Things change.

 

You're right I haven't met your boss! But I have seen a photo of him and my stars and garters he's an ugly monkey! Why his face would peel paint off a trailer. You must have to wear sunglasses and avoid looking directly at him.

I heard his wife sexually harrasses you. Is that true?

 

psst.......nana is baking us some cupcakes...but be vwery, vwery quwiet about this

i'm bringin the coffee....

 

Every time I get anywhere near here.....

 

Back in the day is back in the day. They also didn't have indoor plumbing back in the day. And they didn't have xbox back in the day.

You're not your granddaddy and you might have talked to a bunch of old geezers but they drove ............BACK IN THE DAY.

Those days are GONE. If you want to drive a truck you'll be driving it in THESE DAYS.

My brothers taught themselves to drive........back in the day. Back in the late sixties and early seventies they taught themself to drive but that's then and this is.......NOW.


You ever gonna step up and tell what company you're accusing of telling you that you'll have to be a slave?

 

But, bless his monkey faced heart!
cupcakes?

 

That was my ADD thought for yesterday. Today's ADD thought is building a house out of shipping containers.

 

I may have to start saying that: why bless your little monkey faced heart. LOL OMG I may piddle I'm laughing so hard.

 

Schools have to have a building, lot, trucks, instructors, supplies, state certified, put you in a motel, feed you....
Someone has to pay for all that stuff. Last I looked about 1 in 6 makes it through school, qualifying medically and their background checks out clean. Then they go out there and get home sick, over stressed, mad that they do so many things for free. The turn over rate is so high even before they get started good.

So companies are suppose to absorb all these costs for failures? This isn't a job you learn in 2-3 days. Companies would go broke if they foot the bill. Even if you stick it out, your whole first year is tough as you won't make squat. You wanna play the game, you have to pay your dues. Why should they pay you when so many are willing to pay them?
