FFE Class of August 15, 2011

Got my answer 20 minutes ago.

I will not be attending FFE (I knew something was up) because my license had expired a few years ago due to a glitch in the renewal system and a typo at the BMV. I knew this happened and nobody was really at fault. I went to renew my license back in 07 and rather than a renewal the BMV worker gave me a duplicate or at least it went in the computer as a duplicate. So in 2007 when my license was set to expire it actually did expire. I didn't know about the error until 2010 when I was pulled over, in fact my hard copy of my license said I was good (really confused the LEO and the judge even how the license said good, but the computer said expired).

In summary any suspension more than 90 days in the past 36 months is unacceptable to FFE. In Ohio 90 days after expiration the expiration is considered a suspension. I bought a 2nd house and moved around the time they should have sent me a notice in the mail, just a failure in the system. Nobody can expect the system to work in all circumstances or foresee all pitfalls that might exist. So now I guess I have little choice but to go to a gutter feeding starter company. So we will see how strong I really am now.

I wish all you FFE guys and gals the best of luck! See you on the road.

Edited: The suspension is also unacceptable to Millis, just got off the phone with them too.

 

In 3 years! LOL
No it will be completely gone in about 9 more months. Unfortunately I am not a patient person. I figure if I start now even with PAM I will only have 3 more months to go and I can then choose a good company with 1 year of experience. Might as well get the ball rolling now.

No worries and thank you. I have been out of work too long to wait for something good to hopefully come along. I will not be FASFA approved for a loan for school as I still have about $9k outstanding on my student loans. Driver Solutions and either PAM or USA something is my easiest and fastest answer for now. I just gotta make it through 12 months, I can do that. I have seen worse, I hope.

 

Ohh no I have all kinds of great options with Driver's Solutions.

• PAM
• Stevens
• USA Truck
• Decker
• Swift
• Werner
• CR England

Put them all together and it equals a company almost 10% as good as Millis. Gonna be fun

 

No sorry that was just some broken hearted sarcasm. So do ya' still think I work for FFE? LOL

I think the choices kinda suck but really there is no industry where you get what you want without first putting in your time. I can not say that I have put in as much effort as I should have and really deep down agreeing to DS feels like defeat and giving up. I am gonna bust my $%@ the next few days trying to line up something better than DS.
