    Ok I start school Monday at Future Truckers of America in Ashboro NC. I live just north of Charlotte, I should be done in a month. I hope to drive OTR and I don't mind being gone for weeks at a time. I am hoping to start with a tanker or flatbed but as a newbie I don't have my heart set on it. I've already got a passport and passed all my dot testing stuff except the Hazmat and TSA stuff which I plan on completing by the time I have my cdl. What are some good companies in my area that might hire right out of school?

    Thank you in advance
    Doug

    Tidewater Transit hires CDL grads. They have a terminal in Charlotte. I've been with TWT since August, running out of their Decatur, AL terminal. Been very happy with them.
