    Been out of trucking for about 15 years and am putting my driving boots back on. Any advice on horrible companies out there? How about some good ones? I know that I'm going to have to go out with a trainer for a while, because I have no recent experience, but I gotta do what I gotta do!

    Good Luck on returning, as far as good and bad companies. You will get good and bad opinions on every company out there. What might be good for someone will be bad for another. Any company is going to be what you make it. Figure out what is important for you, home time, miles, benefits ect... Narrow down potenial companies and research all the info you can find on them not just on here. Often what you will see on here is an driver that had a bad experience with a company and comes on here to vent and put the company down, that does not mean the company is bad.

    Take your time and do the research and take peoples opinions with a grain of salt!!!!!!!
