    It's the slow season for LTL and most companies for that fact. It is sometimes hard to get an OTR job when you have experience this time of year. Yeah I'm sure the LTL company would work for you, and all the rest of us who have been trying to get on for years. You are better off playing the lottery. You may have to do some grunt work and do the otr thing until somebody dies and a spot opens up and they skip all the other applicants with tons of experience and pick you. Keep your nose clean and stay away from those poles at walmart that seem to attract rookie trailers like magnets, and maybe you can apply when the busy season picks back up and they need help after they call back all the drivers who they laid off.

    Not really, there is a part time job open for LTL right now in my area. It takes about a month to complete training with most school companies in my area. By that time it will be Feb or a little into Feb. End of feb and beginning of March is when LTL company's pick up. So I could be good to go without being signed on with anyone. My last resort is being signed on with swift or another company for a year. But if I can help it, I will do my best to work around that. Doesn't hurt to try anyways, please no discouragement. All that matters is trying and having hope. I believe I can get into a LTL part of a business by doing as hard as I can and not giving up. As long as I'm good at what I do or great, or even excellent and have commitment, I'm sure I will be just fine.
