    Just read through this thread. I start school (PTEC - Pinellas Technical Education Center) August 20th and my first choice is Conway. I've already completed a pre-app with them lol. Love to read all the good stuff about them. If anyone wants to continue sharing their experiences on here that would be great!

    They say the idea of brotherhood in the industry is fading away.From what I have seen on this forum at least with the con-way and crowder people, that sense of fraternal brotherhood appears to be very much alive and kicking:biggrin_25525:

    Vmaggs,

    Man you are almost there! You just have to go into overtime with your finisher to seal the deal. I am sure you are eager to strike out on your own in your own truck but at least you have been getting decent miles and seem to be set to finish up on time. Now all you need to do is pull the luck straw on a truck and have the wind at your back.

    Be safe and I look forward to meeting you and everyone else for that matter on the road.
