Advice, constructive criticism or otherwise

The military thing is new so I'm not positive how that work. I believe there is no charge for the school portion but you need to verify that.

As far as the trainer go it's all according to where you. After school you can have a trainer meet you near your home. Unless you live near a terminal it doesn't make sense to leave a vehicle there.

 

Yea I would wait for that.

 

Yes. As long as you show your DD214 school cost is $1000 instead of $2500 (i think these numbers are correct) Its a substantial discount. I had my school paid for well before other guys in my class.

 

Trainer can either meet you at nearest truck stop, or could always meet at the terminal and leave personal vehicle there. That way you always have car anytime your in Trenton for the night as you will be thru there quite often.

 

As for should you, or shouldnt you make the switch.....really only you knows your financial/life situation we'd all be speaking blindly saying do or dont. Your 1st yr at Millis you'd make around 50-60k, which for some is an improvement but for some its not. You only live once and only you knows how much you've wanted to drive. Good luck and will I'll help answer any questions to help.

 

I would wait until you receive your payout in February and go for it. That way you would also avoid getting on your own in the winter. I ended up on my own in December after spending all of my training time in the south on a temporary dedicated Christmas account with my trainer. It was fine, just slow down and take your time as you would / should in your car. When I went thru their school 2 years ago I paid $1,000 for school because of my military service when everyone else paid $2,500. Not sure if that has changed by a recruiter could answer that.
