Nervousness and no sleep. PLZ help!
Ok I was on here about 1 yr ago. I was on the brink of joining the ranks with Swift. They did not hire me and I kinda felt relieved... and a bit discouraged. So I got a local job as a dump truck driver and started to be thankful I didn't get on with Swift. Now I no longer work for the Dump truck company and have an opportunity with CRST expedited! I am excited but did not realize they do mostly (if not all) Team driving. I do not think team driving is right for me. My tolerance for others is not very high and I enjoy sleeping without my life in someone else's hands. I don't know what to do since I live in an area that is not industry friendly so driving opportunities are few and wide spread. I have noticed another member is with CRST and close to where I am (Naples). I don't want to pass up an opportunity but I am tired of sitting and waiting for the right one as well... What should I do ! ???

wow Thank you all for your comments and view points on my dilemma. I should be hearing from my recruiter on Monday and plan on asking her if the route/lane she told me about is solo or team since she vaguely went over the run I might be running after 28 day training. I looked around and noticed they state they have around 2000 team drivers and 350 solo. So maybe I will be lucky and be in that 350 group. I am pretty positive team is not for me. I am looking at other companies but I seem to be just out of the hiring area or cant get the recruiter to call me back or answer the phone.... weird because that is kind of the only thing they have to do all day I thought . Anyway I will check out the bulk application when I have a bit more time. I really do appreciate all the helpful and informative replies. I am on pins and needles till Monday when I can find out team or solo and have no idea what to do if she says team lol. Like I said I dont want to settle for less but I also dont expect to walk into paradise right off the line either.
@Trobaddour(sorry if misspelled) I do have my Class A already with tractor trailer exp.. just not OTR. So I wont owe them a dime I dont suppose.
