    Well I have decided to get CDL permit and possibly join a company like coke or pepsi and finish training. My question is will a local company work with me on my college schedule or do I have to choose one or the other? I want to do both drive and learn. All input is needed though in the end it is my choice.

    Its hard enough to go to school and work at the same time. My best advice to you would be to call coke or pepsi or anyone else your interested in and ask. Good luck.

    All depends on the company. Most will not "deal" with your schedule time needs do to the fact freight usually has a specific time to be at a location. It is difficult for them to keep the logistic part of the freight anyways,
    alone throwing a specific need of a driver into it.

    Finding a part time local job where you work a few days out of the week and schedule your classes around that would be much easier..

    School bus may be a viable option.
