    Would my company know if I was idling wen I'm "not supposed to"? So ill go with this plan, get a little 300-400w inverter that plugs into the cigarette lighter because I'm sure it'll power a tv, I seen a knigjt driver on YouTube do that. And I'll save 500 and not get a freezer, just the cooler and a camp stove or a 12 portable stove, 4way socket extender for gps, charging, etc. how long should I stay there before I move on? I know 3 companies that guarantee weekends, allow inverters and I'm pretty sure one of the 3 has built in fridges, and I also know of the ltl world as well. My last job I was a dock worker at one and they said come back once I get a CDL and they'll pay me 21/hr to do p&d :0 (they didn't know I was going to a whole new company, just said I gotta quit so I can get a CDL lol)

    Company sponsored CDL's are a terrible route to go but people keep doing it.

    It's the only route for me. Besides I'll go from making 1600 a month to at least 2800 a month, I'd have to work 2 jobs for that lol. I tried getting a Grant, didn't work, I was approved for a pell grant but the truck driving schools in my area had no use for them besides one (Hamrick) but I'm guessing the highscho I went to wasn't on their approval list, you'd think 24collefe credits with a 3.5GPA would nullify that and the fact I drove 2 hours away with a 103 degree fever would get me some sympathy points lol but the ####### wasted my time talking about how good the school is and I could even do a externship with swift, werner" I could go on and on lol but believe me, last option. Plan Z.
