Thanks in advance

Thank you to all the folks that contribute to Truckers Report. Have been lurking on here for the last few months gathering info as my husband decided to enter the trucking world. We finally decided to take the plunge and he started his CDL training last week! I appreciate all the contributions of the many members here as it was extremely helpful in researching our decision. Looking forward to learning more as this new adventure progresses. We live in Denver, CO.

 

Thanks Bumpy. My husband got his CDL and has signed on with Schneider and heads to Fontana, CA for orientation on 10.2.12.

 

Thanks for the encouragement. I'll try and see what I can stir up in here on the forums. You try and stay out of trouble out there!

 

Hey dude:

Thats good to hear. Based on everything we've read on here they seemed like a good fit for someone starting out. He'll be driving Western 11 states based out of Salt Lake City to start. A few more days and then hes off to Fontana!

 

Thanks PM. Well hes doing Western 11 which I understand is a Regional fleet. It still sounds like 2 weeks on / 2 days off, followed by 2 weeks on and 3 days off. Basically 5 days off a month. But I suspect that will be variable. It will definately take some getting used to.
