    Recruiter for Schneider came to my school telling us how great Dollar General routes would be for a new recruit. Stay away from that!!!!!

    Freymiller - fancy trucks set up right for long haul trucking.
    Schuster - nations largest ice cream hauler; Blue Bunny Ice Cream.
    FFE (Frozen Food Express) - terminal in Chicago.
    West Side Transport - guaranteed minimum weekly pay, if you follow the rules.

    I was out sick the day Schneider came. But I heard from the other students all about the great DG routes haha. I wasn't planning on going with a big company like that anyways though. From what I can interpret from what others say, it seems like the bigger companies are like a plague.

    I think that's what NFI is offering. I wouldn't mind being out all week, I'd just like the weekend to spend time with my family. Daily home time doesn't appeal to me as much. I want the home time but I also wouldn't mind the 'escape' haha

    I work for a company many might call a mega. Melton Truck Lines. But since I didn't know my ### from my face, I needed a training company. I'm not unhappy here 14 months later. I recommend them for beginner flat bedders. There are a bunch like Melton. Maverick is good.

    I think I've heard of them. Maverick wanted me to start out as a dock hand. I think I'll pass on that.
