    Some of you have followed my struggle and now it is almost over (the getting into school part) I have two job offers that came today. One: work for Maverick in the SPECIALIZED division doing the glass thing. Two: work for Schneider in there TANKER division. The pay (form what they say) is about the same. I need to let them know ASAP what the deal is.

    Can some of you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE give me wisdom on this. Out of the two what one should I do. So everyone know Schneider is a 18 month commitment. Maverick is a 6 month commitment. I wait for an answer from all you folks that know what you are doing.

    No. They say Tanker is available in my area it pays more and you get home more often.

    So they say.

    Both Company's have offered the job. I have not signed with either since it was just today and I don't know what to do. I NEED SOME HELP FROM SOME EXPERIENCED DRIVERS.

    Hey Crazy, When I said I need help from experienced driver I was not referring to not wanting to talk to you. I wrote that then thought you might take that the wrong way. It was no intended wrong at all. I just want some that have an opinion on this to chime in. I wanted to make sure that was clear between you and I.
