    Hey all. Recently got my CDL. Old coot, vet, biker ... add them all up and amazingly I STILL have a clean DMV record :biggrin_2554:

    Hoping to pick up a job come Feb (school ends 1/27). Can't decide who to go with, even after surfing this site. Money isn't an issue. Home time is not a critical issue either (kids grown & moved away).

    RESPECT IS an issue! I figure getting what you want moved from point a to point b ought to mean something. Right? I can do that!

    Welcome, thank you for your time in the service (and the others on here) and good luck with your search. Sorry I cant be any better help on which company to go with. I started with Werner and I just took the good and the bad as a positive learning expierience (especially the bad, learned twice as much). I personally kpt a journal that way once I started looking for that next driving job I knew what to look for and what questions to ask. Again good luck with your search.

    If you want respect don't go to a megacarrier . You're just another one of the thousands they go through day to day . You're expected to move things from point a to point b . Tht's what you're paid for . Did cotton pickers get respected for picking cotton ? The only thing that gets their attention is when you don't get it there .
