Howdy goon folk, I just checked through pages 1-8 of A/T and all of BFC, couldn't find any truck driving threads. Anywho, I'm a 29 year old goon that's been working lovely fast food and retail jobs my entire life, I just finished up a associates degree at the local community college, but sort of having doubts about myself putting in another 2 or 3 years for another degree that I may end up not really enjoying, and spending about 4 to 5 times the amount for tuition just so do as such. Basically, I'm at a crossroads where I feel 30 creeping up on me, and am still living paycheck to paycheck. I personally have very little in means of friends and family, my life is pretty much working and World of Warcraft, so I can very much adapt to being alone by myself for days or weeks at a time. I'm curious what sort of things people could tell me about being a long haul truck driver; would it be best to get my CDL at my community college, or look for a company that would train and/or pay for my training, I know some of these companies require you to drive for them for a year or two in return, but typically you're free to look elsewhere after you get a bit of experience under your belt. I suppose my long term goals would be getting time on the road in, and then eventually trying to get something local here in Houston so I can be at home every night. What's the internet services like for laptops? How likely am I to get murdered? Tips, suggestions?
