    You are new to the game so unless you have built some rapport with an A list carrier you will have to work at a puppy mill for a couple months. I will suggest you try: Knight, Werner, Celadon, Magnum, Decker, and etc. If you are bold you could try calling the local companies and seeing if they will train you. And being honest they may actually consider it because you are a female in a male dominated industry. Also, I would suggest that you not job hop. Because the A list companies don't hire people who have had 4 and 5 jobs over a 12 month period.

    Oh god. They been saying that for 40 frigging years.

    Listen. First off Congrats. It's a achievement.

    Second off. Your real learning and education just started. The road will teach you what you need to learn. Or you will scare yourself at least ONCE enough to consider quitting. If you have bawls you will get over the scare and hang in there for life.

    Good luck.
