Schneider Truck School ?

Well Good Morning Twicebit ;
You and I an others had a late night last night here in the forum.
I sleep fair, hope you had a good rest also. Got up with stuff on my mind of will I get that part time job to help fund my truck school stuff I will need. And who will be able too realy convince that I am the real deal for a lone or to co-sign for me to go to school or what info I may pick up that will help lead me to that right grant that's got my name on it !!... Or that state program that everyone seems to get except me it seems because, I made to much money last year... I keep asking myself what does last year have much to with some of this, Yea I can see some but heck every time you turn around... Good darn thing I am a hard head some times an don't take no as the real answer !!,
But most of the time I not a hard head an I listen well to what's being said to me and I seem to hold on to it pretty tight. And then there are tho's time you just look at people and scratch your head ?? where did you get that from.
Talking about some of these program directors out here. Oh funny I found a milk haulers convention kind of next door to us here and heck I thought I had it bad ???... Some of them like what they do and that's fine love them for it but one of them said I did not mean to stay broke all my life or like %% to no where kind of thing.. They to say, you can make in areas of the country 50k a year hauling milk... Now thro's guys are funny.. Bunch of good guys it sounds like to me also..
OK, well I was saying last night about other company's I have looked at, had said crst was one ??, There wedsite looks alsome there 13 section review inpressive, what they exspect of you as a driver trainee, things you need to bring to training, and how its only a 8th month contract the least time in the Industry.
The best open door policy bar none. No forced dispatch, shout down when you feel the need, weather, tired, or other your call. And we all know that's the way it should be !!, BUT we know better !! don't we...
For me I read people pretty well like in our email letters its almost like eye to eye, but on that darn phone you hear the words expressed but you can't see them waving there arms and rolling there eye's around in there head and them writing notes down of what you said so they can twist the words around to get you into there wed an then suck the blood out of you then send you home for some stupid reason, and your head is so light from lack of blood all you can do is say thanks and ok an witch way is home and for the most part you may have to walk because there nice to pay your way there to suck the blood out of you, but then your dried up why should i pay to get you home... NOW understand I am not realy talking about crst it could happen ?, but some of the ones I have spoke to, you just get that feeling because you can't see the words or there eyes and jester's, the tapping of the pin to paper, the tapping of the foot, and there not going to roll there eyes into the back of there head while you set there... BUT you just know for sure in person...
Now in our forum there seems to be a lot of very unhappy people where crst is concerned these guys an lady's not happy happy campers and from what they write I can see why..
When you go to some of there reviews online you see what job they held and when, still there or not there pro's an con's..
Not many nice things to be said, some yes ?, but the bad has more votes..
Yes to the question for me is NO they don't have a very large tanker division very small in fact I would think that's pretty close net group, not much transferring going on there, so I want to drive truck, NOW this Apply's to other company's as well, I want tanker !!, May not get tanker in this reality for a year or 8 months from now.
Soooooooo, SUCK it up and take what I get for now if I can get to a school not a company school, YES I lose the road miles and operational hours down to the minimum hours road and class room of the independent C.D.L. Class A school, like you said last night !! ? school at day my bed at night better sleep for the next day's events....
These two !!, yep hard to pick...
If I have to go van or refer I guess I can go the hard line and say NO LOADING OR UNLOADING, DROP & HOOK...
Sign the paper !!! to that fact !!!...
My heart is still going to be with a tank and I have waited this long I guess what's ?? a year....
Does this sound as I am giving up ??....
Or just giving into it to get were I want to be !!!..
Look forward to you reply Twicebit & ethos, 9000,000-Tons-of-Steel, or any who may have some advise where to go who to see or talk too...
OK here's todays agenda !!!!... YOUR LIKE THIS ONE GUYS....
Have had my shower at 5:00am oh I realy did not have to share that !! oh well to late to backspace, deal with it LOL !!.
Twicebit : I sware the dress code of the day is correct !! OK OK GUYS PRIVATE JOKE don't go penut gallirie on me here !!!.....
Going to put two applications in full time part what I can get to help.
Calling a guy at of all places voc-rehb to see if they have any programs to help out on school THIS SHOULD BE FUN..
Take one more round with the unemployment office this will be fun because they realy don't care except whens lunch..
NOW here is the one you will like the most !!.
I was saying about online stuff and the phone thing well there is a pilot truck stop close by and I see prime come in vans refers and every once in awhile a tanker, see crst, Schneider always, pam's transport, cr england they have a spot here in the area, would not work for them on my worst day or best witch ever came first. I am going to talk to these guy's you know the eye to eye thing !!!..
Go see a couple of small loan company's and when they say no I'll just say to them ?? You say no now and you feel right about that response, but if you say yes !! You will feel better in the morning.. ( I Hope They DO )
You know I don't want a hand out just a hand up the latter to get back to work doing what I use to love and walked away from to do other things, I have always had many interest. I don't move around I do stay for many years. Hope you understand that one.
I have no issue in paying back a loan or doing what needs to be done or what the program say's I need to do...
I think I have it covered.
Can't wait to hear your reply's an advise an if you believe I may be wrong or missing some thing lay it on me I am open to change .. Change is what make you a better man I think...
Well every one stay safe in what ever your doing or where ever you may be, talk to you guy's and lady's later today....

Twicebit ;
Guess you are running around as much as I am, hope your still talking to me, LOL.
MUCH better day, today !.
Loans ? well talked to some new people an they tell me the same, BUT this lady said well you know your credit is not that bad
and I have seen worse your kind of mid upper side, if you understand that.
So what I would like to do is take this app. to my boss, let them look at this, it is for school and I an he knows you may not walk in here
with a contract to go to work with a company, that would say I can pay, they have done this a couple of time before.
Lets do this it may work.
The Voc-Rehb is Thursday an that's going to run long hey a step at a time will see.
Called a couple of local milk runners and one said he has trained a driver after his school and he would do it again he had good luck with that guy an he stayed two years.
The other guy said he would think about call when I get out of school.
These guys would rather have some one just out of school teach them there way..
Ok that's it have a good one talk soon.
