    So my question is:

    Are there companies out there that would give a new licensee a Dedicated route position?

    I agrees some days you wanna punch yourself in the face. Some weeks I only do 1000 miles but 40 stores. Some weeks 2300 miles and 15 stores. I am home daily and make very good money. I started there straight out of school but I had military experience. They counted my experience but payroll started me as a student until I proved myself
