Hi ladies so im finish school however i still dont have my license. im just not good with shifting. i passed the straight back and ally dock but i still stall the truck and i coast HELP!!!!!!!! do you guys know off any companies that will hire me with my learners, also im looking to stay in the DC MD VA PA area i was thinking to stay regional i have a 13 year old and a 4 year old grandbaby. i dont mind dedicating myself to a company for a few years (the more experience the better). i take my test again next friday which i have to pay for and i feel that im jst not ready especially since i couldnt pass with the practice now that school is over im not going to have any practice. i have a lot riding on this and im not sure what to do. i have been away from my son for so long however he is a great kid who understands totally what im trying to do for me and him. it just feels like for all the sacrifices i have made over this past year for me not to even get my license feels like those sacrifices was in vain. any advice at this point good bad or indifferent would be helpful. just need help thats all

Nobody is ever "good" at shifting coming out of school. The clutching should be done in a finger snap. 1 snap 2 snap. The first inch 9f tue clutch is the freeplay after that you should only push the clutch in an inch to shift.. Feel the walls of the shifter. In neutral if you rock it back and forth you will feel them which will make it easier to find gears and shift. When down shifting lay the ball of your foot on the floor and tap the accelerator. It keeps you from overreving.

Thanks Gator im just left with a since of starting this journey and feel as if i have not finished i still dont have my license(sigh) its extremly frustrating thats y i was inquiring about trucking companies that will hire me with my learners i know i will have to stay with them at least 2 years thats cool i just want it to be with a company in my area

I highly doubt that you will find a company that will hire you with just your permit....they would have to send you with a trainer out on the road, like most company cdl schools do. And even after you get your cdl license, then run with a trainer for 6-8 weeks, you will most likely have to go running OTR for awhile. Most companies want to see a year of OTR before they will hire you for local hauling, unless they trained you. You are in a great area to get home on a reasonable basis with any of the bigger companies. If this school thing doesn't work out, you can always go thru a trucking company cdl school....spend your year with them to pay off your school, and get the coveted years experience. Then look for a job that is regional , or local. Its a long process, but its doable if you want it bad enough....
