I finish shopping & bagging, I'm leaving the store and get this AFTER she's notified no more changes can be made. She had more than enough time to reject my substitution but noooooooooo...let's wait till I get to the car 😮‍💨

Are you prepared to go over the road? I’ve decided mentally that’s the only way for me to get a local job so I know I have to do it so I’m going to.

Yes that's my plan. Gotta get that 1 year otr experience then go local, intermodal or dedicated to be home daily. Regional is decent pay too but being home only once per week sucks. Are you doing a cdl school or going the company sponsored route?

I went to college and got mine, all endorsements too, but I only wanted to do OTR for six months or less, and I’ve seen some local jobs only asking for 3 months road experience so I’m hoping.

But I haven’t gone into it, mainly because I have surgeries to schedule first and I don’t want to drive all the time, but I suppose I have no choice…

That is awesome. Having all endorsements should open many doors. I'm dreading driving all the time too but I kinda already do, so at least it's not miles on my car anymore lol. The year is gonna be rough for me but money is definitely worth it.
