You are making a wise choice. You wont find the perfect company to start with and SNI isnt any exception but they are strict on safety and following federal rules and regs. NO logbook "fudging" or any other nonsense.

You could do a lot worse than pumpkin for a 1st job.

They don't way all that much but they run safe & legal, have good training and don't promote fleece purchase.

:roll: Once again, please refrain from using the word career
in association with trucking. Am I the only one that thinks it is
a dead end job? :roll:

8) I don`t work for them, I`m pretty much local now a days,but I do look at some of the ads for different companies from time to time and what they offer sounds good to me . A fellow at my church went to work for them he liked it but he was never home.So if you just want to get some windshield time, you will get it there fo sho!!! Good luck.

No offence, but in 30 yrs I have made much better than average pay in my driving career. Homes, new cars, motorcycles, not just for me but my kids were raised riding also! In another year, I am buying property and am moving to FL to reserve my spot before I am to old to enjoy it....lol
Make this business give you what you want!! It’s here and waiting for you to make it what you want it to be!!! Its been said here before, a job is what you make it……………….
