Yesterday as I was pulling away from the fuel island this beautiful restoration pulled in on a trailer. Not sure what year Mack it is but it was sure pretty and it was a diesel.

Matt, glad to hear things worked out well for you. Is the tanker your running food grade? With the hourly pay are you running regional on a dedicated account or is it OTR? Glad to see you back.

BK, what about the passenger seat? A lot of the newer bikes have a front wheel that is designed to come off quickly and go back on the same way.

Are you thinking about a bike to help get some exercise without taxing your knees?

BK, good luck on your interview.

PJ is right business casual is the right way to dress. Like the old saying goes you never get a second chance to make a first impression.

Keep your answers brief but focused. What I mean is don't ramble on when responding to a question. It is ok to pause for a second and form your answer in your head before speaking.

Ask at least one question when it is your chance. PJ is right again when focusing on how that company operates. Another option is there a go / no go policy that would make you not want to work at a company. If you ask something like this make sure you write it down and it does not sound disrespectful.

Lastly thank then for their time and the opportunity to interview with them.

If they have more candidates to interview and they will not be making an offer that day send an email to again thank then for the time they spent with you.

I know Prime drops their contract for vets from 12 months to 9 months. But it would not be advisable to leave at least until your 1 year mark with your first company for numerous reasons. But it is an option at Prime.

I am 99 percent you can double dip company based training and get your GI bill benefits for a certain period of time. When I was looking more seriously upgrading my class B to an A it was available under a few companies that had apprenticeship programs approved through the VA. I would start at the VA website and you could always talk to a recruiter, I think Swift was one of the companies that participated in the program.
