A friend of mine has been considering getting their CDL for trucking. I was looking into it for them and found some benefits: training can be as short as 3 weeks, high levels of job security, competitive salaries averaging $39,000/year, part-time options, etc.

All of this sounds awesome but I was wondering if anyone with personal knowledge about CDL training/trucking in general could provide some insight or advice. Thanks!

Looking for some help on great Companies to start my new journey.

Hello! I worked as a delivery driver for the past 15yrs. I suddenly got laid-off because my Co. was sold without any warning. I am VERY INTERESTED in getting my CDL (to be home daily, temporarily, since I have school age children, until they become of age)wondering if anyone has any advice, since I don't know where to begin. I am ONE HECK OF A WORKER, with unlimited amounts of stamina and I won't quit until the job is done! I have 2 letters of recommendation from the Employer (1 from the Chairman and 1 from the CEO) who laid me off. I just need some guidance in finding the best paid $ CDL w/being home daily?!

Every response/advice welcome! Thanks everyone!!
