    I really do like everything I have heard about Millis, I do not have the 500.00 to go that route or wait that long being out of work now. Anyone know anything about CR England they called and have accepted me, wanting me to leave out this Friday 6/13 on a bus to Utah?

    At one time CR England was the single worst place to work. That could have changed. I would tell you that if you are desperate just to dive in. Be careful of signing anything. Those contracts are not written to aid you. They are 100% pro company. Real them carefully and do not sign with your correct hand.

    Thank you everyone for your input, at this time I have decided to put this decision on hold. Majority of what I have seen the majority of you are correct in your statements. Top choice would be Millis Transfer, they have a good reputation and training program. Unfortunately for me I can not afford the 500.00 or the time till their next class on July 7th. I have a good lead and line up on a non driving job which I need desperately.


    My advise to anyone else looking at getting into the business, go to a technical college. If you can't do that be very selective on a trucking school. DO NOT try any of the company sponsor training, EXCEPT for Millis Transfer. The others will promise you the world, in most cases I feel you would regret the choice or find yourself stranded far from home. Best of luck to you all, Current truckers out there stay safe!!!
