	Here's a copy/paste from another thread about Melton Truck Lines

 NewI worked at Melton, had a fantastic experience. I know you said you’re 59, (I’m 28) so maybe flatbed won’t be for you (I’m not sure how much physical work you want to do)
 
 orientation was wonderful, the recruiter I spoke to didn’t BS me on anything. The pay was good. I went in with experience already, so I had .65 per mile start, and would genuinely run 2500+ miles a week. If I ran hard, I was seeing well over $2,000 gross a week. Only reason I left was the home time. You get 1 day at home for every week on the road. You got options to earn more, such as the “Road Dog” program. Which offers a day of hometime, for stopping by CDL schools and just talking to students.
 
 Orientation is in Tulsa OK, the hotel I was in was very nice. The orientation was 8 days, and if you’re inexperienced, you’ll spend 4 weeks with a trainer. Load security training was also very thorough.

	I concur..Go with Swift.
 
 Just ignore the bad press that they get, it’s funny to joke around about them but in reality I don’t see them at all being a menace on the roads. You could do much, much worse.
 
 My only issue with Schneider is that I feel their training period is way too short. Unless you got a brain like a sponge it’s probably not the best way to go. Just my worthless opinion EagleTrucker and tscottme Thank this. EagleTrucker and tscottme Thank this.
