I just registered at Progressive Trucking School in Chicago, today!!! I've never worked in the trucking industry but became very interested & the $1800 160hr course just came at a perfect time & I couldn't pass it up... What would you recommend to be the next step to a newbie like me???
Just registered to get my CDL!!! What next??? What do you recommend???

Buy a pistol & a box of ammunition, then play Russian Roulette.
Actually read, learn, Ask questions, listen, & don't create an attitude when someone who has had years of experience tells you something completely different then the guy that trained you with his 3 months experience.Skunk_Truck_2590 and outerspacehillbilly Thank this. -
Listen to REDD.
Skunk_Truck_2590 and Texas-Nana Thank this. -
That might not be a good idea!! I'm strongly thinking about the first suggestion may be the best for me!!!
-
LOL, Nicely put.

I just graduated a 240hr course a few month's ago, My best advice is to pay attention and keep an open mind. -
I hear ya. After some information I found out today about a "new test phase" my company is doing I'm thinking it might be my best option too!

Whats going on over there martian dude?

Whatever that thing is you always wanted to do, you better go do it now. You just sold the rest of your life to sitting behind a steering wheel.
Also for a week straight only sleep for 5 hours a night to warm you up for the future.

If you have range in the morning, get there early and familiarize yourself with the pre-trip. Just do one step at a time. Familiarize yourself with all the parts you are supposed to inspect.
Don't listen to negative people. -
A time when freight is at a 20 year low and over 90,000 people lost their jobs in the industry over the last year is the perfect time ?
Watch this and think about it .
