In CDL School

Start of my 3rd day in school. Took my permit test this morning. Thank you to Brett and the High Road Training for getting me ready. Hopefully all the book stuff is out of the way so we can get into the meat of the school-driving. Again thanks Brett

No I don't have my permit. I have killed the high road training. If any of those questions are on my permit test I should do pretty well. I am bouncing back and forth between High Road Training and my state CDL handbook .

Told Werner I woud do Dollar Gen.

And that has to do with questions I have. Is unloading time considered part of your driving time. I hear what they are saying but you don't drive that many miles so how do you get to the paychecks they say you are going to make. I am a little skeptical. I am not afraid to work I just don't like being mislead. If I am going to be away from my wife I am going to work and make money, don't want to sit around. But I am new and not sure how everything is going to work out the way they say.

Finally

Well today I took the plunge. Starting TDI in Sanford on Tuesday . So it looks like I will be bugging everyone on here for a while to come. I am so excited. My second career and I welcome the opportunities it will bring me. Thank you to everyone that has answered all my crazy questions. They aren't quit done as I haven't picked who I want to work for. I did a few weeks ago go to a flatbed company in Jacksonville and wasn't very impressed. Dirty and they kept me waiting over an hour so I left. I hope I have better luck with future recruiters. Can anyone give me a heads on what to expect from the companies that I will speak with. More important then that should I ask any specific questions. My wife is about 60% on board but she will get better.

Anyone work at any of these companies. They were on the wall at TDI just wanted the lowdown on them.

Current Werner Dollar Store Driver

I have read all the reviews and comments on the above job. Can get a current driver that does this route to chime in. That way I will have the most up to date information so I can make my decision. I have narrowed my choices down to Werner, Schneider or Swift. In the next day of two i will send application to them hoping to get a pre hire letter. What an incredible journey with starting this new career, but I am not a person to jump around on jobs so I want to make the best choice. Thanks to all that have helped me along the way

Help with Understanding Schneider Pay

Spoke to the recruiter today and they said new employee will start at 31 cpm + 2 cent. What the heck does that mean
