    brand spankin new to the industry. been looking here regularly trying to see if there's actually anything good with the trucking industry, and i admit it's hard to see any. i'm hoping to drive, having just finished a 10 week vo-tech class but seems it's the 'bad' one's that're hiring.anyone have any comments on TransAm?
    thanx from so. ga

    Welcome to the board,pinballwizard!

    While there may be some negativity here about some companies, let me just say this...there is good AND bad in EVERY company. It's just a matter of what you personal will want to deal with.

    Look for some of the more positive posts, and much like everything else in life, use what you need to learn more, and leave the rest behind.

    Good luck in your endeavors!

    Hey Pinballwizard! Welcome to the forum. Judi Kay is straight on point. I'm a wannabe myself and I've spent a lot of time weeding through the positives and the negatives. The negatives have their purpose...they make us think. The positives have their purpose....they keep us focused on what could be. Dig, my friend, dig!

    There should be some ag haulers in your area that would be better to work for than the OTR carriers .
