What kind of trucks y'all driving? I'm pulling doubles and 53ft vans right now for an LTL carrier. Pulled vans at old job and intermodal containers OTR, local, regional, and dedicated lines.

Been out of this shyt for over a decade and just got my first check. shyt is way better than what I used to be getting. Thought I would be doing this permanently, but I think I am gonna try to find something outside of this after I pay off some bills and stack some bread up. The company I work for seems ok by me. Idk if I'm gonna be here as a lifelong employee tho.

Out here working with an LTL company. P&D driving, but they say it's possible to do linehaul every once in a while when somebody takes off for vacation. The experience opens up so many doors. Pay is good......There's a Mazda-Toyota auto plant they are building here which I know will bring a lot of driving jobs (and just jobs in general) in the next few years. There's already a lot of driving jobs, but that will defintely have terminals boosting their numbers. Might look into that when that happens or go back to the tanker side eventually and get that retirement money ...... Just so many different jobs out there, you never know what you'll do next...

If you read the book you'll be all right. If you take shortcuts you're more likely to fukk up. Especially since you want to be carrying passengers.

Trust me, Read the sections you need. Re read what you think you need to better understand. You don't have to be perfect with it, and they won't fail you when they see you're trying and able. You have to have some knowledge about it going in though. Google and YouTube will be your friend on some things too.

Maaaaaaaan get your CDL B instead. You need Airbrakes, General Knowledge, and Passenger endorsement for it
You can drive those big buses and make 60k with ease

I was thinking about that Para transit job years ago. I was in training, and I quit the training a week into it lol. Thank god I got my CDL A

I feel you breh... Right now I'm taking one thing at a time where I'm dealing with lawyers and a ton of other shyt I just need me a small gig to hold me over until I take my former employers to trial and see what the judge says... the para transit has sedans not the big trucks no need for air brakes I believe.

True that. Use this week to study for the Passenger and General Knowledge test for the Paratransit job. Like ASAP go online and take all the tests on that website and take the test at the DMV on Friday, you'll pass breh

Go to the DMV at lower Manhattan near Bowling Green, they are the best one IMO
