    It's Been A Long Time Since My Last Post.
    I Thought I Would Update And Get Some Advice.
    I Take My Road Test Tomorrow. I Still Don't Know Where To Go.
    I Shift Like A Man....so Forget The Auto Shift For Now. I'm Not Sure Where To Put My Foot In The Door. Now I Live In North Carolina. I Was Looking Into Cfi And They Are Out Of Joplin, Mo.
    If They Are Way Out There...and I Am Way Over Here...could That Mean I'm Not Going To Get Home Like I Want?.....and Werner Is My Other Consideration....what Do Ya'll Think?

    Go look at the websites and see where they have terminals, call them, research... Actually research should have been done by now, but you waited. The closer you are to a terminal can be better for you, and further worse. What do you want to do van, reefer, flat bed, their are many companies that hire students and their are plenty that say you can get you home weekly, but you have to research.

I Have Been To Website After Website And Called Company After Company And Have Prehires After Prehires. My Ducks Are Just In A Disorganized Row Right Now And The Pressure Is On. Thanks For Those Who Will Post And Give Me Something Positive....no Thanks To Those Who Want To Give Me B.s.

    Sorry if that came off the wrong way. But what do you want to drive would help in trying to tell you where to go. Knowing what all your possible choices can help in you making a decision, your inquiry was to open ended. Again sorry. If CFI and Werner are your choices to choose from then CFI.

    paperboy how was that B.S. for the question u asked? did you just get offended cuz he said u waited? he was trying to help out. You need to clarify what you have been doing before asking for info that you already know.

    Ufortunately Roehl's Rider Policy Is Only Spouse...i'd Like My Girlfreind To Travel Now And Then...the Closests Companies To Me Are Usx Being The Closest, Schneider, And Swift In The Next State Over. Cfi Has Good Training...but The Next Terminal Is Far Far Away. And Werner Is Far Away. Thanks For Your Input...im Over My Anxiety Spell.

    Schneider, I have heard focuses a lot on safety; I have reviewed their company and they sound like good company to start with perhaps even stay with. The also offer extra incentives like one was discount on dell computers. I know you know the story on swift, so I won't even go there.
