Time for a new career..

Don't expect "everything" at once as in Trucking one's dues must be paid..(As with anything) Keep your license as clean as possible,keep a good attitude..And above ALL else;choose your FIRST company wisely. IMO..Roehl would not be a bad choice however-start reading threads on the forum,and ASK questions. Good Luck.

Thanks Bumpy, have a clean background and not a ticket since 1989, and spent the last year getting in shape, so kinda looking forward to the change, have been working on industrial machinery for the past 23 years and our work is probably headed the China, so gotta make a move and get ducks in a row..Will read up and talk to all I can about the route to take..all advice will be considered..

Congrats Vinny. You deserve alot of credit. Have you decided what company you are going with?

It's between Millis and Roehl.. really leaning towards Millis have been reading up and seeing all the posts from school and I beleive thats the way I want to go..gonna get permit in Sept. and medical done and talk to the recruiter..and hopefully get the ball rolling..Also not to far from Ctrsville, just across NC line in Otto, close to Franklin NC..so travel to school not an issue..

ive been leaning towards roehl for some time and now after reading more and more i think im going to go with millis i too am very close im in snellville ga. probbaly about 30 to 40 miles from millis. sounds like a good company to start with. studying my manual now and hope to pass test in a couple weeks and then ill call recruiter and get physical.
