1st Year in Trucking

I actually agree with you all, and as you all know I'm a rookie to the civilian trucking industry. But I KNOW VM, and a couple others will be happy to hear that I'm going to do a new program called Operation Freedom, for people like me leaving the military to use our GI Bill to pay for trucking school, and we get our GI Bill benefits for our first 12months on the road as an Aprentice Driver. The company I'm going to school at is Western Truck School which is based in Sacramento but has a school in Las Vegas, and the company I'll be driving for after that is Werner. I know its still a good sized company, but I've yet to hear or see anything bad about them in print or media, and yes I look lol. They have an 11 state regional run that will have me home every 10-14days for two days. I've talked to their drivers, and former drivers and none have called the company a "machine." So I'm looking forward to feedback from all you guys. This is also in my blog, so reply there, THANKS

44days left people...

Well we secured ourselves a house for our return to Vegas. Only down side there was that I had to set up the Lease to start Nov 15, even though we don't get there till Dec 16th. But the wife really wanted the house, so ofcourse she got it. hahaha...
Nice 3bd 2bath 2car gar, with a backyard view of the strip. Its up in the hills towards Lake Meade. Should be a nice place to stay and get used to live in Vegas, and life back in the states for that matter. Having been over 3years since I've been in the states, I'm quite ready to come home. Still trying to contact Schnieder and see if they can make a simular or better offer since it was recommended and they seem ver military friendly. More to come on that, so for now, Gunner out!
