    I graduated today guys. I hit the road on sunday apparently. I chose per diem and rand mcnally practical miles. I'm not sure about health ins yet. It doesn't sound like the best deal, but it isn't all that bad either taking that hsa into consideration. I believe my trainer runs regional...mostly between St louis and Ga he says.
    They added 3 other guys with previous experience to our orientation...so there were 7 of us students that graduated and them.

    From what they told us...it all depends what they have available at the moment...but most students without any experience can count on being otr at first. Once you get some experience, it shouldn't be a problem to transfer to regional, that's if there is availability. That's what we were told at least.

    One of the Millis drivers came by today when we were on our break, kinda badmouthing the company. I guess no company will ever make everyone happy...

    Chances are he would not be happy if Millis paid his weight in GOLD.

    Solo seat your right. He may of had a valid reason. I guess I got use to seeing guys on truckers report having nothing good to say but are mostly negative about the industry. I hope to stay positive or move on to another way to provide with my family. In the military, you always had the #####ers and moaners and they were never happy. I assumed this guy may have been one of those..my bad!!
