    That's the option I took.

    Easy, peasey. Close by. Short commute.

    Slept in my own bed. Ate my own food.

    Meanwhile -- got a CDL....& at a reasonable pace. Laid back.

    Graduated out with no commitments -- or strings attached.

    No worries about things like...will I get fired (justified, or not) before I work off my contractual agreement (& thus have to write a carrier a big check)...?

    All good points, but you missed the most important one - its the best training. Guys who graduated from a ptdi accredited school have no problem passing any company's orientation- at least in regards to skills, behavior is another conversation.
