New Driver looking for a comapny Ok, soon-to-be new driver...
Let me start by saying sorry for starting another "Where should I go" thread, but after reading numerous threads on here for a few weeks now I feel like I had better seek some help. My situation may or not seem odd but I guess I am too indecisive.
About me: I am 31 years old and decided to go for a career change. So I decided to give driving a shot and it has always been something I have wanted to try. I took the plunge and enrolled in a training school here in the Omaha area. Of the 4 week program, I have one week left and still have no idea where I am going. I will get my picture taken for my CDL with all endorsements (pending TSA clearance for the HazMat) as all tests are passed.
As far as where to go after next week, there are a lot of options. Yes the Werner HQ is here in Omaha and I do have a pre-hire with them, but I want to look around. My school has contacts with Werner, TMC, Swift and Trans Am as well as others. I want a decent company with decent pay, good equipment, as normal, and being that I have no kids, wife or girlfriend, I am going OTR.
And one more wrench to throw in the mix...my cousin is attending school now as well but will not turn 21 until January but we want to try running teams when he can and will run local until then. So add in a team friendly company. We would prefer west and/or southeast from the Omaha area.
Anyone have any suggestions?
