    Hi, I have been reading up on this company and I have
    to know how was the school's CDL training. Also, do you have to sign a contract to pay back the cost for the school?
    Where was the school you attended and how was it?

    Who did you end up driving fleet for: Coors, Kraft, ect?

    Thanks,

    Hungarianskier

    keep us informed about FFE because they have a terminal not far from here ,Kissimmee Fl area and its always good to know what your neighborhood trucking companies are like

    I worked for FFE for about 16 mths. I learned a lot working for them. I started as OTR and then got on their regional fleet. I did pretty good financially with them. When I was with them your fleet manager was NOT the dispatcher. I made an effort to get to know the dispatchers. If I wasn't going into a terminal to deliver I would be proactive and call for a preplan. It is my belief that MY success DEPENDS on ME.
    Let me know if you have any questions I can maybe answer,

    Hey BobbyW

    Believe it or not that is a hard question! I made the 28 cpm when I 1st came out. But my understanding before I left was that the new drivers were getting more.

    My yearly income was above 30,000. Not a whole lot BUT I was hurt and off for 2 mths.

    I averaged 3000-3700 mi a week.
