Hey folks! Been a member here for a few months, only posted one other time I do believe. Been in school now for 5 months, 1 month to go, all time on the road getting the feel of shifting and learning what to expect out there. Have pre-hires from Werner and Roehl, which is where I may lean seeing as I am a veteran and they both offer the apprenticeship GI Bill program for the extra money. Just thought I would put myself out there and once I do get my hard copy in hand and get hired on, I may start a running thread with my first year experiences. Til then, Keep On Truckin!
One month to go!!

Soon you'll get your money for nothing and your chicks for free!
Congratulationsseabeejojo and Chinatown Thank this. -
Schneider Bulk would be better and they offer the extra GI Bill money also. Tankers is where the money is.
You can make $60K-$65K easy in tankers and with Trimac can make $100K+ once you qualify for their "Elite Fleet" which takes 24 months.
Schneider Bulk
Superior Carriers
Trimac Transportation
Tidewater Transit
Groendyke Transport
SVTN
CTL Transportation
A&R Logistics-this company waives the 1 yr. experience requirement if you drove trucks in the military. Were you an EO?
Some of these websites may have "experience required" but ignore that and apply anyway. They bend their own hiring rules for high quality applicants.
For these premium jobs you will need tanker/hazmat endorsements, passport, TWIC ID Card.CruisingAlong and seabeejojo Thank this. -

Opted for the longer school for money reasons with the GI BIll paying for school. Also wanted the longer school to get a good feel for handling a truck.

UPDATE:
May 4th with Roehl is set in stone. Going for Reefer, so orientation should be in Appleton Wisconsin. Still working on other options as well, but Roehl may be the place to stay if they sign me on.
