Get a tanker endorsement along with it and you can run tankers....and some of those companies give you a % of the loads. I heard anywhere from 25% and up....
But there's so many options with a CDL Class A in your hand(without even the hazmat), it's not even funny. Railroad jobs, Intermodal jobs, construction jobs, Yard dogs, waste management, bus driver, OTR, etc.
Jobs everywhere....

Driving around with dangerous chemicals is always a downside.

My friend tried it. Not sure where you live, but if you anywhere in the Northeast, or the midwest, your training program would be in Atlantic City, NJ
The positive is that it's one of the easiest jobs to get a call back, they are always hiring. Simple application process. It's a 2 week training. But be mindful, the training is run like the military
How they train is that you practice driving with the trainers to Philly, NJ, and NYC, and practice how to get in and out of the Greyhound terminal with the bus
The staring pay, depending on where you live ranges from 17/hr to 21/hr

You can check any indeed forum and it seems the complaints about Greyhound and those like never end. From them training you, to the little hours you get and always being on furlough for longs periods of time.
Of course you should always check things out yourself.
