rbennitt is on a distinguished road
Angry I really need your expert advise....

Due to the economic situation, I have been forced into bankruptcy and foreclosure. Thus, I have decided to pursue a career in driving. I have spent endless hours searching for company-paid training, as I have no capital anymore. The few I have found, will not offer said training in the state of Florida. Do any of you know a reputable company, preferably one that I can make a career with, that would offer paid training for prospective drivers from FL? I would hate to have to resort to activities that would not seem ethical in order to raise the money. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance in this matter.

I am NOT an expert, merely a FORMER Truck Driver. been Driving off and on since late '98.
I did not lose everything THEN DECIDED to become a Trucker.
Trucking THEN was incredibly BETTER than it is now or ever again.
If I did not have a conscious or a concern for other People I might have had a shortened Life in the tumultuous world of Crime.
Do not resort to unethical, immoral acts just to make a few bucks because some acts can certainly ruin chances for other activities in Life like staying out of PRISON unless one is really lonely.

Truck Driving is NOT AN ANSWER to financial problems.
If anything it WILL INCREASE financial problems.

WHY do people consider Truck Driving as the answer to "I can't find a job or I need help in my Life so WHERE in Trucking can I get hired or WHO in Trucking will hire me?"

If you cannot make it in your current field of experience you'll most likely NOT make it in Trucking. Truck driving is NOT AN ANSWER or a cure to unemployment, financial misery or the growing population of I always wanted to dwive a twuck.

You live in Florida so to many companies you might as well be living in Europe.
Florida is one of the WORST STATES to be living in for Truck driving because of the pathetically low load pay rates available in wanting to LEAVE.

Good Luck.
