    Just booked my flight to orientation in Atlanta, I hope I get the job cause it's a one way ticket, anyway they say I will train for 3 weeks then go midwest reginal, hope everything goes smooth, after alot of reaserch here on the forum I chose KLLM over Swift and Stevens. Any advice? Like where the hotel is and the name of the hotel, I will arrive Sunday afternoon but orientation isn't till Tuesday so I will have to get transportion from the airport to the hotel on my dime which is fine does anyone know how far KLLM is from ATL airport?

    Good luck driver I hope you do well. Just remember whatever you do stay with them atleast six months. Even if it gets bad its hard to tell how a company is going to be in less than six months.

    Medic1: I believe you made the right choice, esspecially over Stevens.I am a scardy cat and have to research alot and KLLM (from a O/O point of view) looks very good. Company driver too. The airport has a easy public trans rail called marta. I am not sure where KLLM yard is, but the industrial part of atlanta is north of the airport. There is also a rail/truck intermodal area south. Be careful in atlanta, its much like detroit! Good luck!

    The south side is pretty rough .... but nothing like Detroit - I've lived in both.
