    Bottom feeder carriers have newbies quitting every day so they are always hiring . But then you may wait for a trainer because they don't have enough trainers to keep up with the turnover .

    Generally, close to the end of December and January is a bad time, because a lot of places that you pick up loads at will do inventory, or at least that is what I have experienced in the past. Congratulations on getting your degree. As for me, I am working on my Master's Degree at an online university. Keep striving, and best of luck in the trucking industry, and I bid you the best in your career endeavors out here on the road.
