    I can't remember right off the top of my head but one or two companies required experience, another didn't hire graduates from my school (they weren't listed in the list of schools they hire from) Raven declined me, no explanation. Another company had only flatbed available. The rest didn't respond. I did not complete the DOT Foods app because I decide to go with Prime.

    Buy a used Moped and keep it at Bottomley terminal and ride it back and forth for hometime.

    Sounds like I should just turn around now and save myself a miserable trip and a $100.

    Keep going and stay at least 3 mos. so you'll have more opportunities when you get home.
    I don't mean, be gone from home 3 months, I mean, get 3 mos. experience.

    If you’re lazy. Van
    If you think you’ll lose weight. Flat.
    If you hate sleeping or hate other people sleeping. Reefer.
