What career should I go with?

Old Dominion does put new drivers directly in a line haul job. Just depends on what a particular terminal needs.
That company hired a whole class from a cdl school and put them all on line haul immediately because that's what was needed at that particular time.

Holland and FedEx also have line haul and sometimes need drivers so much they hire with a CDL-A Permit or even help people get a CDL-A.
Sometimes their websites don't reflect that.

Here's a CDL-A FedEx job in Charlotte:

• Must possess 1 year experience within most recent 3 years, OR successful completion of FedEx Freight Driver Development Course
• Automatic transmission CDL restriction allowed.

 

I would have figured you would have said a bloodmobile....

 

What’s the best way to get rid of competition? Put them on the scent of other game.

 

Go for the money. Car Hauling’s great, till you get old or too fat. LTLs always a hustle. You have to like the fast pace. Local Day work goes by fast. Tankers probably the best bet. Higher Demand, More Stability. They say it’s great. I don’t believe them.

 

It's not..stay away.
Clean work, minimal or zero unpaid labor.
Daylight deliveries and those pesky short trailers along w a higher wage make the sector one of the most difficult to adapt too.

 

Car hauling is a fuster cluck! You´re gonna take to 2 to 3 hours to figure out how to load and place the dang cars on the hauler.

 

Are there any cars to haul?
Every lot I go by has like 10 to 20 cars and they spread them out like they are fooling someone.
Maybe the auction moves are keeping them busy.
