I spent 7 years doing Building Maintenance for a chemical plant, decided it was time for a change and trucking will be that change. I'm SO POOR thankful for TT and the material they provide. I'm excited for this new change and grabbing it by the horns and going.

And i............PASSED. Nailed my pre trip, nailed the backing and got 27 out 90 on the Road Test. I'm officially a CDL holder. I wanna say thanks to Roehl. Thanks to my trainers especially Dan. Thanks for your wealth of knowledge and I'll put it to great and profitable use.

Chris,
Thanks for posting such a positive review of Roehl, so far.
I hope your positive attitude and outlook stays positive and that you have a rewarding career with Roehl.
When I looked into Roehl a few months ago, I learned that it wasn't recruiting in my area. Then, earlier this week, the Patriot News in Harrisburg, PA included a nearly full page ad from Roehl's recruitment department. The ad stated that Roehl was looking for people from the Lancaster, PA area who were interested in learning to drive tractor-trailer and to drive for Roehl afterward getting their CDL. Oh well... Sometimes my timing isn't the best :-)
Best of luck to you, though, Chris.
Be safe out there!
Steve
They're a phenomenal company, everyone from the bottom to the top is friendly. Take THE LEAP AND DON'T SECOND guess, you won't regret it

I talked to a Roehl recruiter yesterday. I have another phone interview set up for next week. I think they just took the top spot on my list from schneider... We'll see come Feb.
Jump on it, the best you'll make. Good luck

I'm in my second week at Roehl and may I say it has been an AWESOME experience. Best decision I ever made and couldn't be more grateful for the abundance of knowledge that's being instilled in me for a successful career in trucking. My instructor's are awesome. Patient and VERY knowledgeable
Which location are you attending? I went through their program last October and had Dan and Dale in Marshfield. I agree they are very good at teaching student drivers even though the pace is so fast.
Dan and Bill in Marshfield

Hello MonkeyBone:
Keep us posted. You never know we may meet somewhere on the road. I've got some months before I even go back through the school again. I can tell you from my experiences of over 20 years ago, you will see some things that will surprise the hell out of you. Good things and bad things, but nothing you can't handle. Just keep on going.
Bad Bob
Thanks for the vote of confidence and encouraging words. Maybe one day I'll be able to buy you a cup of coffee
