I agree with josh on the verizon part, I do the same. I work in West Texas in the oil fields and verizon always gets me 3g and sometimes even 4glte in the middle of nowhere! They are expensive but they have great service. On the laptop I can tell you that Dell is a great brand, the one I have right now, the inspiron 7000 series is awesome, I've dropped it 2 times on the ground (on accident of course) and it got a little banged up on it's side but the screen still like new and everything works fine. Oh and it's touchscreen so that still works good.

Another good option would be Asus. They make great laptops too. My dell was 650 at Best buy. Hope it helps. I don't have any info on your other questions, hopefully someone else does. Good luck!

Hello, thanks for taking the time to read my question. Here it goes:

Last November (2014) I got into an accident, I may have been distracted for a second or so and didn't see the roustabout truck in front of me stop, (I don't think there was a reason to so idk why did he) and when I realised I was too close and I didn't have enough distance/time to stop so i rear ended him. I wasn't driving fast, we were all following a pilot car at about 25-35 mph, so when I hit him i must have been at 25mph. It was not a big accident, no one was injured, it was like a fender bender just with a truck. His vehicle had no damage, just mine, the radiator and hood were messed up. I got a ticket for "failure to control speed". I took it to a lawyer which is currently working on it. It has passed some time and it is still not on my record.

I applied to US Xpress (my first choice) and when the recruiter asked me if when they called (X company, the one that I had the accident with, which I was let go for by the way) if they were going to say everything was clean, and I said that I meant to put what happened on the application but I wasn't sure since it was still not on my record and it probably was not going to be, she said that they weren't going to be able to hire me until I had 24 months of accident free commercial driving...

I also applied to Schneider and with them I did put it on my application and the lady said that even if I got it removed they weren't going to be able to move forward with me until 7 years! Which to me sounds like a huge amount of time. If I accumulate such time of accident free time while driving I don't think I would apply at Schneider anyhow lol

So my question to you good people of this website is the following: Should I just not put the accident on my application? Since it is still not on my record? I just feel bad about lying/withholding information because I don't want to be enjoying my job and everything be going good and then I get let go because I didn't tell them about my pending results of my accident/ticket.

So what's your suggestion/advice TT?

Thanks again for your time and your replies
