    I've read the bashing on all the companies all over the internet. I am sure there is some truths to all the stories, but I also see a lot of drivers that are with these companies for years. I guess it's what you do with what you're presented with.
    I was accepted to Swift and Central Reefer. Almost went to Central, but the guys on this forum that are training with Prime, and are working for Prime have been honest and upfront with their experiences and what to expect. So I made the decision to go with Prime. We'll see what happens, but I don't have any reservations about my decision, I have an idea on what to expect, and I am willing to put in my time and pay my dues to learn a new career.

    Not sure yet, leaning toward reefer for training. My ex father-in-law was a trucker and instructor. He said he could not even park next to a reefer and get any sleep. Me, I can sleep standing up leaning in the corner if I'm tired. I figure January might not be the time of year to learn flatbeds.

    Well, got my CDL Permit this morning and passed all the endorsement test also. Glad to have that done before I leave for Missouri.
