Just turned 21 dead end job and thinking about trucking.

"GO NAVY" !

retire in your mid 40's and then drive truck.

 

Believe me. They'll trim you down. Plus you get to lob grenades at people. Use high explosives.

 

The Steelers could use some help on the O line. Put on about 70lbs and you might have a shot!

 

YRC has a small terminal in Erie Pa. Walk in with resume. Ask about a dock position. They will pay you to train to drive. But you will work the dock and drive tow motor to start.

It will suck for awhile. Just part of getting started. Do as your told. Get trained, then choose to stay or leave. Some guys love it. Some do not.

100% better than any of these OTR meg fleet #### companies.

 

Do your research. Its not for everyone. But its union teamsters. You will start at bottom and work for a low wage. But it can be a start for some. Full time, full wage is a comfortable wage for alot of people. The reason I say walk in, is there is still alot of decisions made in "house" terminal. You possibly will be way ahead of online applicants. Maybe not. But its what I would do.

 

Here's information on YRC: ----> Yellow CDL Driving Academy
