Hi All! I’m Tierra or T. I’ve officially started the process to become an OTR driver. I am currentLy a claims rep for auto and home insurance . After years in customer service/call center I’ve become complacent with answering phones . After a week or so of research using this forum and YouTube , I’ve decided To go with Wilson Logistics. Although a long training period, I look forward to it and love their pet policy as I have a German Shepherd that I insist on bringing with me once I’m solo. I am studying for my CDL permit and hopefully will be testing next week. i plan on starting with Wilson in February/March as I am waiting on my current end of year bonus payment with current company lol which will have me while not being paid initially and to not take any advances. I look forward to posting more .
