Newbie looking for some guidance
Michael, I've put off going to CDL school this last winter and spring. I too to had obligations I needed to address. I used that time though to do extensive research on Truck Driving as a career. Lots of what I learned stemmed from this site. I leave for Roehl CDL School this coming Sunday. Granted, I'm not looking forward to being away from my wife and children for an entire month, but the reason I waited was to get everything I needed in order at home first to make an easier and smoother transition into this profession. This way I can dedicate myself fully to the training that is required without worrying about other things. Best of luck to you!

What is your training date? I'm going flatbed national. Good luck on your quest.
I posted a previous forum Roehl July 20 you might be interested in with links to important documentation resources. Others found it helpful .

The Life, Death, and Resurrection Of My Truck Driving Career
because everyone thought I had been doing a great job until that point
You still are. Glad your ok and that's one hell of a learning experience. It's all about the experience and what you learn from it. See you on the road sometime.

I'd go with what your gut tells you. You are questioning going to US Express, leading me to believe that you'd rather not work for them. 40 hours is a short amount of time, compared to however long you may be unhappy at US Express. Also, you may learn something from the refresher course and benefit from it. You've been around this forum for a while, I'm confident you can and will do the research needed. Good luck!!

Beginning my journey with Roehl.
Hi Renae, I start at Roehl CDL school up in Marshfield WI this coming weekend. They required me to get my permit first, I live in MO. Some states are easier to transfer out of state CDL's from. When I finish school I will have a license from WI that I will then transfer to MO. Side note: I was planning on moving to MA this past spring, my plans changed, but my point is, the recruiter from Roehl at the time said to go to a private school to get my CDL in MA then contact her if I wanted employment at Roehl. I specifically asked her if the school in MA that I was going to attend would be accepted by Roehl. She told me yes. MA requires you to take everything over if you do not have at least 2 years experience. This includes your permit. Yikes. I wish you the best of luck on your quest!
Donnie, Hope your training is not near the SWIFT teminal in Phoenix. I worked across the street for Maricopa Parks and Rec. Dept. back in 2007. There is a dog food factory near by as well a landfill. Ahh enjoy the scent and brown cloud of Phoenix. Hope to meet up some time. See you in the Flatbed division sometime.
