    as of today im a current cdl license holder. I would have had them Tuesday but I failed on my 90* alley dock 4"inches outside of the box. yesterday I passed all of my skills test and went on a little drive with the state examiner. had some knuckle head pass me on a 2 lane highway in a no passing zone with oncoming traffic he managed to get around me, the oncoming traffic was less then 30' away!!! I was only going 2mph under the speed limit. I asked the tester if that jepordized my test she informed me that I wasn't driving that vehicle and she also wrote down that tag and description of that vehicle I assume they will receive their driving award this week sometime. now im currently looking into trucking companies

    Did many companies recruit from the school?
    Do you have any endorsements, mainly tanker/hazmat?
    There's so many companies in and around Atlanta to choose from.
    The good money is in tanker or flatbed.
    Watkins & Shepard has van & flatbed & I know a van terminal in Calhoun hauling carpet.

    Check these & see if any interest you:

    Howard Transportation
    Melton Truck Lines
    Maverick
    CTL tanker division(a Comcar company)
    Schneider tanker division
    Prime flatbed division
    TMC flatbed
