Congratulations Driver!
Don't forget to read this Commencement Speech. You'll find both some encouragement and some great advice in there. You're doing a great job, hang in there. This career is the most challenging at the beginning. We understand that because we've all experienced the almost overwhelming urge to throw in the towel a few times while we were rookies. Stay the course, it's all worthwhile.
I very much appreciate it! I can honestly say I have not had thoughts of throwing in the towell yet. I have enjoyed everything so far. I tell myself often that this beats sitting in a cubicle anyday!!
I will read that commencement speach now.

Thanks guys! Thursday our class heads back to the Maverick campus in Little Rock and start load securement training for those that are going flatbed.
I spent today going through the pretrip with people still waiting to be tested. Just trying to help where I can until Thursday.
Still having fun and learning all I can.

Hi Jeramy,
I don't live far from you (Warrensburg,MO) I have been approved with Maverick to go through there CDL sponsored school in April. I don't retire from my current career until then.
I have a question about transferring the CDL. The way I understand it is you get your permit and then CDL in Arkansas and then you come back to Missouri and transfer it back so you have a Missouri CDL.
Do you have to retake any tests or the CDL physical to get the license transferred back to Missouri?
Thanks
