I'm not trying to be a jerk here but if you go to that company (England) your wife and kids will still be out on the street, You just won't be home to see it happen...But look at the bright side, You'll be so broke that you'll probably never see them again anyway so you won't have to explain to them why you decided to go to work for a company that everyone knows starves their drivers and never gets them home! The other benefit is you'll be teamed with a perfect stranger with no manners, personal hygene or common sense that doesn't know how to drive so that the whole nightmare can end with you dying in your sleep in a firey crash so you'll never have to answer for the bad decisions that led you to your ultimate demise.

Sounds like a good plan to me!

What kind of job are you looking for.. Are you just wanting OTR? Have you considered regional? Dumps? Tankers? Car carriers, Moving Companies (bedbuggers)? Dry Bulk (I know there are some companies that run from NH/Ma to Ontario hauling cement.. They run heavy but it's somthing else to consider.) Even Roll off's?

Why everyone gets fixated on the mega reefer and van companies is beyond me.. There are lots of "other" options that are often far better!

OUCHH- but true, I know when I first got my CDL at 19 I couldn't find anything, until I found a local driving job paying $13/hr so I took it..keep your head up that's all I gotta say, its a great industry for me so far and plenty to be made, something will come up eventually

This thread is over 2 years old and there are still thousands of people being sucked into CDL mills or "free" company training that just end up going further in debt .

Well if the CDL "mills" went away, you'd lose half your bulletin board material here.......

That's the funniest post I've read in my short time here, sure am glad I'm doing what i was told and reading everything before deciding if this industry is for me or not.

One can learn a lot here.
