    My name is Kaleb. I'm 30 and starting trucking school in October @ Western Pacific Truck School in Modesto California. I've always wanted to be in this industry but because of some felonies I got when I was younger, I didn't think this would be an option but through talking with my school recruiter, Becky, I found out that I am going to be able to which has me very happy! I'm hoping to get hired onto Northern Refrigerated. After talking to their recruiter, Bill, my recruiter, and doing my research, I really want to get on their. Any information, guidance, pointers, etc are most definitely welcome. Who better to do that than people who live and love this industry. Any information on companies is welcome also. I am wet behind the ears so even info you think is simplistic or mundane probably isn't to me so please tell me. Thank you guys in advanced. I am so excited!

    Don't worry, many companies will hire you.

    The first day of school, start submitting applications. Don't wait; you will have job offers to sift through and start work the day you graduate. If Northern Refrigerated doesn't work out, you will have other offers to fall back on.

    Welcome to trucking and your new career.

    Note * Keep in mind, you probably can't enter Canada with that felony record.

    I don't think Northern Refrigerated runs to canada so he might be good.
