Scamming the scammers?

Drivers do that every day. Trucking companies just want a return on their investment in you; they train you then put you in an expensive truck and trailer and 10's of thousands of dollars worth of freight.
Anyway, you can get the cdl then quit any time you want and the company will send a bill in the mail. This isn't unusual at all; it happens every day.
Jim Palmer Trucking and Knight Transportation are a couple to check in your area.

 

So you think it's that simple to quit a company you obtained your cdl from before your year obligation is up huh?Better guess again,most if not all companies don't hire while you're under contract.So to end your contract you'll have to pay the remaining balance of your schooling.

That's good maybe things are changing.I know some time ago companies had a policy pertaining to this.May I ask what companies will accept you?

 

A year goes by quick, get your training, do the year and move on.

 

Plus after I gave my 2 month?? notice at the factory I worked at for 20 years , they offered to help me get my CDL and make me a driver, in 2006, I could have been a Teamster making 52 cents a mile, with no training, hauling out their flatbed freight and they usually backhauled steel.
I went with PAM and got a trainer with 22 years experience and did my time, no regrets, as I think I'm an awesome truck driver and not a steering wheel holder.
The recession in 2008 really hurt my factory and they got rid of their drivers and broker out what little they still produce. It sucks, I loved working there, I complained about everything back then too, but it was time for a change.

 

No company is going to turn down a unofficial applicant; way to many chances for trouble: think eeoc and lawsuits. What you hear on the phone from any trucking company will always be different.

The fact is most good trucking companies will check your credit rating. If it is between you and another driver with identical driving records, the credit report will be used for determination if need be. So they can say what seems safe on the phone. When it comes down to brass tax, these things do matter.

Secondly, you have to consider most drivers that do leave these mega-crap training companies do not leave with a clean driving record or DAC. How stuff is handled at these companies does matter.

Sounds exactly like every phone call to trucking companies. Things are different when they review your record. Sorry, there is no shortage of drivers for good paying jobs.
