    Good afternoon.
    My name is Lita and I'm not in school yet but I'm doing lot of studying.

    I plan on going to the IVY Tech school for CDL. But won't be going tell next march when my lease is up and i can move out into a new job.

    I am 29year of age and have a great driving recorded.

    I am looking for any help i can get on the driving test. I've never had to drive a stick before and I've never driven anything as big as a semi truck.

    I am up in the air about what trucking company to work for.
    Schneider jumped all over me but i found out they don't want to pay me anything per miles. They will pay for my schooling but i can get a lorn to pay for that.

    I still have time but i like planing ahead on things like this.

    where can i make the most?
    Who will train me to do the job the best?
    Who will understand I'm new to this but I'm willing to learn?

    Don't look at cents-per-mile; a few cents-per-mile difference in companies doesn't mean anything; it's the accessorial pays that are important. I made $65K per year @ $.36 cents-per-mile because of accessorial pays. There's drivers pulling reefers making $30K and others making $60K.
    Some drivers working for Schneider Bulk division making over $60K.
    Get all the endorsements plus TWIC ID Card and a passport; all this is money in the bank.
