Schools And Companies.......

Here is how I look at it.

1) If you lined up all the truck drivers in the world, they would NOT come to a conclusion about their company or any company. 2) Any website you visit might have the good, the bad, and the. Downright ugly about any company. 3) The best trucking company out there is the one you just left, or the one you want to go to. 4) After I was fired from my first company, one of the first things I did was...LOOK FOR THE NEXT COMPANY. 5) Did my first company "blackball" me? I don't know. TOO BUSY putting in app, after app, after app. ONE WAS BOUND TO STICK! Which it did.

My relationship to Brett is the same relationship Brett has with everyone on this site. We are experienced drivers giving those new to the trucking industry a helping hand down the right path into trucking.

All the veteran drivers here on the site knows how hard it is to get the right info before starting down this path. We have been there and done that. We did not have the benefit of this wonderful site before we started. We learned through trial and a lot of error.

We have seen drivers come and go for various reasons and most have no idea where to turn or where to start except to just wing it and then the end up back home mad cause it was not what they thought is was or through inexperience really messed up and now don't even want to try it again. We hope to help new drivers avoid the pot holes we drove through years ago and give them a smoother ride into the trucking industry.

The trucking industry, at times, can be an unforgiving mistress. We just want you to be as prepared as you can be before starting down this road. Do I regret how I started out in truck? Nope. Running 8500 miles a week as a solo driver. 3 log books. 4,5 and 6 days without sleep. Running well over 100 mph through the deserts of Arizona and New Mexico and west Texas. Seeing some amazing sun rises and sunsets in the middle of the desert. Running back roads from coast to coast to avoid scale houses. Back then asking on the CB if a scale house was open or closed was a very serious question. Not like now a days. Running with a group of 10 to 15 trucks all night and day and not one person was a CB Rambo and we talked all night long and easily put 1000 miles behind ya before you knew it.........

Do I regret any of it? Nope. It was the way trucking was and you fit in where ya could and learned fast. But it just the way it was.

Now a days trucking has changed. It is the way it is and it will never go back to the way it was. You here all the time drivers saying it was better back then. Maybe or maybe not. But the one thing that held true back then still holds true today. Trucking always changes and never goes backwards to the way it used to be.

THANK YOU GUYJAX! Couldn't have said it better...standing ovation.
