Expect little, settle for less, be happy with almost nothing for the first year.
It gets better after that.
Welcome and Good Luck to you. -
Can any one reccomend a good school

thx onetruck I suspect It will be a trying first year but, If I make it past cdl school things should be looking in the right direction.

I can say I hope you get a good trainer that will teach you instead of mile muling you to death! If you do get a decent trainer listen, have an open mind about things and be ready for a new lifestyle.
Be sure to watch your tandems. Also remember your are driving a 80,000lbs missile. And overall be safe, NO load is worth your life.! -
Sounds like your glass is half full! You need to get a better outlook,
Think positive. -
