There are good Regional and OTR companies out there... just have to do homework and research. Those would be a bit harder to get on with though but usually those good companies are hard to get on with as thr turnover rate is low

The last statistics I saw were something like 88% drop out rate for "national" OTR, about 20% for Regional OTR, and 7% for Local (home every night). The reasons are obvious.
Seeing the country can get pretty old after a few months, I guess. -
these newbies do need to have realistic expectations -

ACH1130 Thanks this.

LTL is just like any other category in the transportation sector. Just like the longhaul sector, we have folks that been there since the 70's, 80's, and 90's... And they are gonna retire here within the next few years. We need bodies to keep the freight moving. As I said on my last post, we have two openings for local drivers and we either require school or a year of experience. There is nothing untruthful about that.

RR, may I ask what geographical region you are boasting about? I would like to apply at your company. I am losing my least soon after the new year, and I don't give much of a #&#$ where I live--though I prefer it not be the northeast. Thanky. -
