    There are 2 words that you need to live by in trucking:

    BE PATIENT.

    It takes time to get to a really good paying job. If you're always looking for a way out of your current job, you'll eventually find your way out of the industry altogether.

    Cryo companies will not take you without that 1 year Airgas asks for. And companies like Linde and Air Products want 3 years before they even look at your application

    Becoming an airline pilot will require about $120k in loans. CDL school costs less than $10k in most cases.

    Also, airline pilots never switch between major employers for various reasons. Airlines furlough pilots in every recession. You could go years with no work.
