    Yeah I saw that other post. Fired for asking for time off two weeks after the fact?

    PT was a pretty slick guy.

    But if he is not quite PT quality it illustrates the problem with the industry. Way to many eager people to saturate it, way to many willing to hire if they are cheap enough.


    To the OP I wish you luck, but would caution you to place more value on yourself.

    So you'll drive for nearly nothing, and then once you get this job do we get to look forward to a bash thread on that company? All about how they dont pay didly squat and rip off drivers. Lol

    Did you get the CDL? If so check with the government and work for the navy as a driver on base. Good pay, benefits and home all the time and you don't have to worry about paying to work! OR check the commercial port. That's union but it's a job.

    Don't post on here when you are down!

    Lol, you can tell someone's mood when they post regularly. I even do it. But when someone or something makes me mad, I can get on the forum and forget about it in a second. It has calming effects as your thinking is redirected..
