This experience was worth the effort.

Julie the Branch Manager was very clear about the entire program. They start training you for success in the industry on Day 1. Effort and Punctuality are two of the most important things in the Trucking Industry. You have to be there, and be there 'On-Time'. Because if you aren't, someone else will be! You get your feet wet with a week (40 hours) of classroom instruction from a guy who spent many years behind the wheel. That will give you a push to start the yard training that I took at the Harvey Yard. The instructors want you to succeed and they will give you all the help you want. You will be driving on the first day learning basic skills about how the trucks operate. You will also be expected to learn about all parts of the tractor/trailer so that you can drive them safely. Driving out on the road can be intense/exciting. You are controlling a vehicle that weighs about 37,000 pounds. Max loads out on the road are a little higher. And once you pass all of your tests and get your CDL, all you have to do is apply yourself and nothing can hold you back.
