Class b hazmat endorsement

Thanks for the advice and wishing me well. I'll keep you posted on what happens after I get my cdl license and what kind of a job I end up with.

 

Thanks but if I can get my cdl class b with a couple of endorsements I'll be just as well off without having to go to cdl training. You see I don't want a otr job where I'll be gone a week or two at a time. I want a local job where I'll be home each night with my weekends off and benefits. All I'm going to have to do is pass my written tests, then go to my one day drive training course so I'll know what to expect on my driving test, (but I won't be testing with a trailer, just the tractor.) And I'll also memorize the pre-trip inspection so I'll know how to do that before the drive test, and then, ( with some luck), I'll get my cdl class b with endorsements so that I won't be limited on what kind of job I can get.

 

Well, you have to start somewhere! I fully realize the realities of trying to be hired for the first time in the trucking business. Even those that have completed a full cdl training course at a training school have a hard time finding something for the first time as I've read. I know I will not get the kind of job I want for the first time looking, but when I do get a job somewhere, I can start building up my experience and after some time has gone by, I can continue to look around for a better job after I've got some experience down my belt. It'll be tough going in the beginning. Heck, I don't even have my cdl license yet and I know that's not going to be an easy task! Thanks for wishing me luck because I think I'll need a lot of it.
