Which brings me to a question.

I am a mature citizen. 57. I work part time currently. Can't find my encore career. Baby Boomer malady. I see Schneider likes to hire people like me. Spotless record. No dope. No booze. No felonies. Masters Degree.Long successful career.

But, I read horror stories about company training. I need my CDL. But, I see people saying they throw you out and present you with a bill for the balance of the school. Are these people just illiterate idiots or is this common? This would be a major move for me.

I don't know about the other trucking companies, but Schneider pays for your training 100%. But they do want you to stay for a couple of years. If you move to another carrier (like after six months) then they'll stick you with the bill for training.

They're all true. But it goes beyond training - way beyond. Don't do it dude. You'll regret it - big time.

Our community college offers CDL training. Does yours?
