Smith And Solomon Shool Started Nov 29th! Weekend Classes
Topic 6353 | Page 1
So I couldn't decide what school to with cause EVERY school had its bad according to forums. I couldn't afford to quit my job and travel across the states for school. So I went with S&S! They have a weekend program that works good with my work schedule. Class started on Nov 29th and so far it feels really good! For once I feel like a have a very good chance on passing my cdl permit! I live in the west Chester area of Pennsylvania. Just outside of Philadelphia.
So I'm looking for a good trucking company to work for once I graduate and get my CDL's!!! Any help of what company to work for. No flay beds! Looking to do either regional or designated work. Looking into Knight. Are they good? Any other companies that might bE good!! Thanks for all help!!!
Hey man, are you at the Norristown campus? I'll be there Dec. 22nd.
