I do have another question, sorry to keep making new replies. I was wondering if, I should mention to my recruiter that i'm a smoker if they don't ask about it or if I should leave it until I get to the Orientation and go through the physical and if I should even mention it there? I know I'll have a choice between a smoker and a non smoker truck so i'd request a smoker out of consideration to my trainer. So basically, I was wondering if I should tell my recruiter about it before I leave in the next few days to go back east or if I should just mention it at the physical at orientation.

You got this! Keep it up, i'm working on mine too even though I haven't officially decided on a company yet (Probably going with Prime). I still think it's important to study as much as possible and keep going over it again and again until you know it forwards and backwards.

Pretty sure I want to go with Prime or Swift, i'm talking (have been talking) to my Recruiters about my wanting to move back east to where my parents are. They live in Missouri, so i'd probably choose Prime but i'm also still considering Swift. I'm also going to be getting married and my Fiance wants to be a truck driver too. Hence why we're considering (EVENTUALLY) possibly going with team driving. If my Fiance changes their mind though, i'm perfectly happy to do single. Lots to consider still, but I will keep my recruiters updated with my plans. My lease in Colorado ends at the end of the month but their considering letting me out of it early so I can head back east. I'm super excited about all the changes that will be happening but also a little bit nervous, but I can get through it cause I know I have the willpower to succeed.

Hi there, I've got offers from three different companies (Swift, Prime, US Express) and I can't decide which company I want to do training through, I know the'll send me to training wherever they need too but I need help deciding which company is better to go through to start and hopefully stay at for a long time. I know that I want to do OTR and might look into doing team at somepoint. I live in Colorado, so i'm not sure what my options are and where their closest training centers are. I'm right at the beginning phase of looking and deciding who to go through. Thank You for letting me vent kind of and any advice on the companies would be appreciated. Thank You,

This is very helpful! I'm waiting to hear back from swift myself. Not sure if i'll do a diary post or not but I love reading about yours so it gives me some idea of what to expect.
