New Driver Coming on Board.

I have been doing a lot of research about the field before I made the decision to be a professional driver. It is something I can do for the next 20 years if I choose to, and not be stuck in a cubicle, staring at a computer screen, or attached to a CNC mill or lathe for 55 hours a week, growing mold under my chin. I figure my 30+ years experience in other fields will give me an edge with some of the better companies after I get some miles under my belt. I can't get a road test until early January, so I will be checking out those companies in the meantime. Thanks for the info.

 

It doesn't have to look pretty for me to run with it. From what I have learned so far, the first year is going to be all about learning the ropes. Might as well go with a company with good training, and lots of run options.
One old timer driver told me that the ugliest truck on the lot. is the one making the most money. No note to pay off, so the profit goes into his bank account, not the lease company.
Nice AMX btw.

 

I am in good shape, and not afraid of strapping up, or tarping. I have chained up low boys before too, and will do what I have to do for a couple years to get higher up on the food chain. Excuse my ignorance, but what does " slinging furniture", mean?
You obviously don't care for Schneider, what would you recommend if you were breaking in to the field all over again?
