My Millis Transfer Experience Starting 9/19/11

Coming up on a year since I left Millis to continue on with my goals that I set when I decided to go trucking. I bought a truck and leased on with Landstar May of last year. Has been a learning experience and profitable. I appreciate all that Millis did for me the 1.25 years I was there. Thanks goes out to Bill, Woody and Harold teaching me the fundamentals and David Barill aka Baritone for finishing me out to where I got my own Millis truck. Without those guys I would have never got my adventure off the ground and rolling down the road. I believe that the training that I received from Millis has allowed me to be an above average driver, a courteous driver and a profitable driver. Since Millis hauls a lot of beer and paper loads it made me learn how to be careful with loads and that has helped me out on so many loads. The first example that comes to mind was a load I hauled from Dallas to Chicago O'hare Airport. I picked up 4 crates that had tilt, drop and vibration sensors on the crates. I found out after making the delivery that the crates contained delicate instruments that Intel uses in their production of computer chips. The crates were being shipped to Ireland to their new manufacturing facility. Needless to say I delivered the load with no problems, plus had to different inspector look at and sign off on the load. I owe that to Millis and the training that I received from them. Bottom line is that if you are looking for a quality training and a good company that will do what they say they will do, then you can't go wrong with Millis Transfer.
