Hello all !!

My name is Don

I am what you call a newbe. I just received my license from New England Tractor Trailer Training school in Bridgeport Connecticut on January 20th. Now I am about to relocate to Florida and "hopefully" start working in the field soon. I am open to all comments and advise that anyone can give me to start out in the field. I look forward to learning from all of you and hope that I may be able to be of help to others as I explore this new life and life style. Hope to talk to each of you as the days go on here.

 

After doing some research I found that getting my license in Connecticut gave me the best training and I was born and raised in CT. The school was ranked among the highest in New England next to Massachusetts. So I wanted only the best that I could get. The school had a great reputation with a 90% grad rate and 95% job placement rate. Which held true. I was able to obtain 8 prehire letters from the major starter companies to get my first year and I wanted to start my new career and lifestyle in a new environment.

 

I wish it were 5000 try more like 8500 and the government took a lot of it off was originally 10,000. Being a vet helps but not enough.
