    Hi. I work in Axis, AL. Dana is hiring, so is American Environmental. I worked for MILS- Miller Intermodal Logistics, out of Moss Point, for a few months last year. They are always hiring (they use Indeed.com to find drivers). All tanker companies. Hope that helps someone in here find a job. Oh, almost forgot to mention Aaron Oil, in Saraland. Their equipment looks top notch going down the road. Good luck to all!

    You don't want Evergreen, then. I've heard real good things about Wright Transportation out of Mobile.

    Well, it's official. July 28th will be my last day with Evergreen. I start Wright on the 31st.

    Good luck and safe travels to all!

    We have been discussing the idea of going back over the road. We liked Abilene Motor Express, but they could not get us home to Mobile, Al or anywhere in Texas. Abilene is good for those who live in the areas that they frequent, not that they run now and then. Evergreen was a logical choice at the time. I was all for going back OTR, but wanted to be #### sure that what company we went to was a not a good company, but a GREAT company. The following criteria had to be met:

    1) Company had to pre-plan runs.
    2) Company had to allow riders and pets.
    3) Company had to have well maintained equipment.
    4) Company had to realize that drivers are human, and not machines.
    5) Company had to run thru or near Mobile, Houston and Dallas on a regular basis.

    When I was in CDL School back in early 2016, one of my instructors kept telling me about Wright Transportation. But, I needed experience to get on with them. My DAC luckily showed over 2 years, so Wright hired me. Wright only hires out of the central Gulf Coast(Mobile or Pensacola) area.

    But with that, I will drop from this thread and start a new thread with my new beginning. I really believe I hit a home run with getting hired on at Wright.
