    A lot of this will be dependent on when your lease is up I guess, meaning if it's up in 6 weeks or 6 months, and also your personal situation, family near where you currently live you can stay with and so on, but letting your apartment go to soon could be a bad thing.

    It assumes:
    1) You will attend school to the end, nothing will happen to take you out of that situation.
    2) You will pass
    3) You will complete your time with a trainer.
    4) You will be assigned your own truck and move on down the road.
    5) ***You will like what you are now doing for a living and want to continue doing it.***

    I'm NOT trying to rain on your parade (really, I'm not), you seem determined and that is a good thing, but giving up your place to live before you are sure of this new path you are taking may be premature. If everything goes to plan and you like it you're golden. If something, anything, goes wrong and you don't you are stuck with no place to call your own (depending on when you are planning to let your apartment go).

    As I said before, part of that all depends on if there are family/friends you can live with should this not pan out for ANY reason, then you have a fall back of sorts. What I said also assumes that should there be any reason this does not work out you would go back to the area you currently live in to continue with life/work, that might be hard if you have no place to live.

    Hope for the best, but plan for the worst, we usually seem to end up somewhere in between.

    If your from Jersey I'd suggest Trenton area. Usually always freight to move out if there and still not that far from Jersey if you wanted to go home there. Usually beer load out of Trenton that goes to Union New Jersey pretty often

    I haven't seen it yet. I imagine it's along the same lines as what they were talking about just before this "pay upgrade." I don't think it's another one, just advertising the most recent one.

    That's what I wondered but I hadn't seen anything prior that said $60k with weekly hometime so had me curious. It was just posted in last couple weeks.
