@Davisito182 --

Schneider veteran here.

Now....I do hazmat tanker duty...hauling fuel (but NOT with Schneider). Home daily.

Especially since you live in a tough area for new CDL grads--if you don't already have all of those CDL endorsements (tanker, hazmat, and also....doubles/triples)....now is probably a GREAT time to start getting them.

Those endorsements will make you more attractive to potential employers.

And....given your location....you REALLY NEED THAT.

The endorsements are door-openers, and money-makers.

Later on, you'll be glad you did.

$$$$$$$$$......

I like Post #7 & Post #9. Refrigerated outfits are really good if a recession/depression hits.
