    Mr @AlvinG, right now, you’re really just need to get your foot in the door and truck for a year or so, right? Well, try all of them that were suggested. I would even try Western Express because they do offer flatbed. ( that would be the only reason why I would go to places like Swift and WE.)

    Perhaps a pep talk from @otterinthewater will help.
     
    AlvinG Thanks this.

    It does pain me to say this, but give May Trucking a call if you want to run OTR. They have a drop yard and parking for your personal vehicle in Lebanon...just down the road from you. They are extremely lenient in their hiring practices.

    Thanks Six.

    @AlvinG I’m slamming right now. I’ll post something a bit later when my clock runs out and I can think.

    Cheers

    PTL would be better than Carolina Cargo & Welfare Express man. Going to be tough with those charges.

    No joke, Its Tough out here, Just some more background. I've been in my car for 17 days, Getting showers here and there when I can. It can't get much worse, Express said they had me a room. I got to nashville, and was told no rooms available after being confirmed they had me a room, Guys been at orientation 20 days when it was suppose to last 3 and 6 days load securement. I just will not go to a company like that, paying you $300 a week for training, and They made everyone sign a 1 year contract or owe x amount of thousands. No thanks.
