Thanks for your candid criticism though. When you talk about "reading these boards?", how many millions of posts are we talking about. I probably would have more luck finding a needle in a hay stack.
Again, thanks for your valued input.GSWx Thanks this. -
SpyderRyder and GSWx Thank this.

I was leaning towards doing it but then after faxing my application, talking to the recruiter three times, they told me they lost my application. I took it as a warning sign. Then there was the fact that the recruiter seemed to act as if things would be no problem (like BMI and neck size) when most people here were saying it would be a problem. Then they'd declare that some part of my documentation wasn't good enough, I'd then supply what they wanted, and they'd just come up with some new reason never previously communicated stating why they needed something else. This went on at least three times.
No one wants to ride a bus nearly 1,000 miles one way and put their life on hold without being reasonably sure they will at least be getting an honest shot at it and not sent home within 3 days. In the end it seemed to be a foolish gamble for me to take their offer. -
I've gotten pre-hire letters from US Xpress, Werner, Schneider and have submitted apps to JBS Carriers, TMC, Prime, KLLM, and submitting apps today to Maverick and Roehl.
Doing the private school gave me more options than I know what to do with and most companies out there will reimburse in part if not full your tuition but under conditions of course. -
Dryver Thanks this.

Finished all the aforementioned apps and did one for Prime and now one for Millis Transfer. Millis looks real good on their pay either HHG miles or Practical. Great hometime as well. I would have to say that Millis, Prime, Maverick, and Roehl are my top 4 choices. We shall see though. I'll go tomorrow and fingerprint for my HAZMAT and initiate process for a TWIC card. I want to have everything set when I go to work. Whew, this is more work than the driving school.

I have heard Millis is good, and I think Prime is OK to
SpyderRyder Thanks this. -
I think the better companies pay practical miles. Some of the others probably charge the shippers hub and pay their drivers HHG. Not to cool in my book.
