    Hey, I just ate there a week and a half ago while on holidays. I can vouch for your recommendation. Great food and service.

    Hope all is well for you Dye! I was yound too, six years ago got my CDL and literally the day after had an otr in Canada job. I did school but only the 2 month course. I did cowboy for years first, so I had driven manure and silage trucks but most companies dont take that as experience. And I have neber worked for a mega company. Mostly 15 trucks and under.

    Funny--I'm reading this mid-2017 and the company you posted a web link to is still updating their website. Site says "Coming Soon".
     
    Dye Guardian Thanks this.

    Well, it happened for my nephew when he was 20, and also in Ontario. That was 2 years ago, and he's still at it, and enjoying it. So let's say perhaps it hardly ever happens, but don't say never..
