Thank, Killin'. Actually in 12 days driving in Trucking School starts. I am not employed yet, nor out of trucking school.
Thanks for the comment and wishes.
I'm on my way. I think in no time this industry will humble me.
Looking forward to getting behind the wheel , the wheel in the cab, that is.

Ben Wah, thanks for the good wishes. I'm in a 5 week course and I feel it's too much too fast, and thinking a 10 week is better to get good training, make me a safer driver. How do you like the 10 week course?

Jmans, I'm completely new to this. Did spend 3 months reading a ton of articles, inquiring on these pages, and watching YouTube vids. But it wasn't until I got behind the wheel a month ago at an open house of a trucking school and got to wind through a training course twice that I really got the bug!
Best to you, El Paso BobJmans Thanks this. -
Love it. 10 weeks at 20 hrs a week. 40 hrs in classroom and 160 hrs in the truck. My school has a 5 week class as well that is 40 hrs a week.

@El Paso Bob, do yourself a favor:
While in school and while in orientation, you're going to notice that there will be certain ones that will be looking for an audience to spread their negative talk. Avoid them.
Things will go better for you if you do.
Luck in battle.El Paso Bob, jethro712 and x1Heavy Thank this.
