    Attained my CDLA last fall. Looking for local work in the Seattle area. I work for a local transportation company doing driving short bus and have driven around 40K in 9 months, I have a clean driving record.

    Anyone know of local home daily company's hiring.

    Thanks

    Yes....Check your Craigslist! Tons of companies hiring there. I'm moving north of you to Bellingham so I've been checking regularly. I'm going with KNIGHT as they are running regional dedicated lanes on I-5 and into Canada. But there are local comps looking for drivers with good starting pay. Only catch is most I saw want at least a year of OTR or safe driving.

    Technically most trucking companies are gonna tell you that you have zero experience....IIRC , you stated that you've been local and been driving a short bus...:smt102 have no idea what you mean there , but unless you've been driving a semi ( pulling a trailer) in at least 5 states , your entire 9 months doesn't count for anything as far as CDL requirements go with a company. A clean MVR is great...you might look at local beverage/beer companies , maybe some construction companies , or even the local food-service/grocery store warehouses.

    Man Seattle women are so easy :) If it wasnt for it raining three times per day and the nonstop traffic I would move there.

    You couldn't pay me enough to live in a cold wet climate.
    You can have all the easy women; the more challenging the more I like it.

    I always thought that as well (cold and wet) until I actually experienced it. Summers are beautiful like the "easy" Women :biggrin_25519:

    I wouldn't call them easy so much as they ARE more open and receptive to who YOU are. Theyre like Austrailian women. Friendly, smart AND gorgeous to which you actually have a chance with.

    Exactly. Nashville has eye popping girls but they are so stuck up that they just look straight and ignore everyone around them. The only way to make them smile is to buy them big diamonds.
