I'm new here and I am planning my career change and I have a few questions. I've looked at a lot of companies and I think I've settled on Wilson Logistics for CDL training & employment. I have a couple questions though before I decide 100% for sure.
1. After you've successfully obtained your cdl, can you choose to do driver training on their Kraft account or do you have to go OTR?
2. If you have to go OTR, can you be picky on who you train with? I don't want to live in a box for 8 weeks with a smoker or a pig.
3. If the trainer is not training me properly, what are my options? I will have a lot of questions because this is VERY important to me so I want to make sure I'm trained by someone who takes it just as seriously as I do. SAFETY first. I want to come home alive.
4. As a company driver, can you request options for your truck such as OnSpot auto chains?
5. I don't care about home time because I'm alone in this world so I would plan on just living in my truck and saving all my money. Is this an option as a company driver?
6. I want to work a max of 5 years while living in my truck to avoid all regular life bills and save all my money. Is it possible to be able to put away $300k as a company driver in that amount of time?
7. What are some lies the recruiter will tell me to get me to sign on?
8. I plan on taking every load thrown at me. Will that get me pay raises?
9. What is the max pay I can get as a company driver?
