So looking into going to TDDS for there 5 week program...The guy I spoke with over the phone seemed to know what he was talking about but as Ive been a salesman in the past I know he is also trying to make a sale. That being said I asked the question if I get my A Class will I be able to find work locally due to being a single parent and no family in the state to watch my 2 year old.. He said "Oh yeah drivers are in a big demand right now but if it was 10 years ago you wouldnt find anything." Now does that sound about right to you Seasoned vets out there or am I getting smoke? Thanks

He's right, but much depends on the area you live in for local jobs.
Where are you located and maybe we can give you some job leads. -

"find work locally" ? Possibly, but remember, you may have 5 am start times and 8 pm quitting times. Can you say "pay babysitter big $$$$" ?
stillwurkin Thanks this. -

All that has been said is true. Some folks believe that going local will give you the "banker hours" while making decent $$$. I'd suggest looking into LTL carriers, most pay decent and are M-F if you run a peddle route and you'll have access to benefits etc.
