    Just so you know, to recruit, hire, process new drivers cost $$$$, right ? So driver's bailing out after 60 days can cost the truck co. right ? Companies started billing drivers who quit early fees for hotel/physicals/grub etc during orientation plus bus fare to get them there. Now it seems signing contracts to stay a minimum time is becoming normal. P.S. I vote for Henderson because I worked there in '05/'06. I liked them. Good luck

    75,000 miles is less than a year. You would want to stay at a company at least a year anyway wouldn't you?

    Both Henderson and Roehl have good reputation.
    I'd go with Henderson though because haven't read anything about Roehl's team operation or if they have pet policy.
    Henderson's new trucks are set up right with refrigerator, apu,tv etc.

    You both need :
    original birth certificate
    original social security card-not laminated
    cheap work gloves
    flashlight
    steel toe slip-on style work boots

    Don't think I would mention having 2 cats; just say singular 'cat'. May even say 'de-clawed cat'.
