I'm going with Swift!!!

Thanks for the well wishes everybody!

Yeah having made my decision, it does take a huge load off my mind. I've read up a ton on this company so I know what to expect to the extent one can who *reads* about it.

I'm still going to read as much as I possibly can before I get to my orientation. But man, I really don't have a lot of time left, and tomorrow is likely to be an extremely busy day!

I'm still not done with all of the packing I need to do. I'm not only packing for the next 6 weeks, I'm packing for when I get my own truck. That's because I plan to have my home time in Colorado and will have limited opportunity to get back to PA. That's also why I really need to get finger printing done tomorrow amongst other things.

I'm pretty excited but I also can't wrap my head around the fact that this is really happening. I hope my driving skills aren't too rusty, it's not like I was God's gift to trucking with only about 450 miles behind my belt.

 

Thanks Wedge,

I wish you the best as well. I'm going to play catch up and read some of the posts you've created. I intend to try to post more if possible, but I think the next few days will be very busy for me. We'll see!

 

We'll be keeping in touch! If I'm not around much tomorrow or for the next few days, you know the drill. I expect we'll both be kept pretty busy, you quite possibly more so!

 

Thanks, I'm glad you felt I made the best decision! It does seem like either Swift or Schneider would have been the best pick for me given their nation-wide shipping. You're right, I feel like a huge load is off of me. Now I get to move forward and do what I've wanted to do for a long time.

 

I'll keep you up-to-date as much as I can. I need to see if I'm going to have my laptop handy. I'll have to play that by ear. If I get a mentor who reminds me of the movie "Deliverence", I'll leave the laptop. Otherwise, I'll hopefully be able to take it.
