Alex, I know several truckers who have taken the training, including the worst alcoholic I've ever known, an old high school buddy. He passed the training and immediately got a job paying around $15 an hour to start as a "co-driver", paired with a more experienced driver. He's now an owner-operator, financing a Volvo sleeper tractor and making a good living. I only know two guys ( out of about 20 ) that took training with this guy that didn't get immediately hired - one failed a drug test and the other smashed a trailer while trying to back into a loading dock in training. You immediately flunk out if you do that. My old high school buddy is still floggin' the big rigs. Whenever I see one headed my way, I look to see if it's him. If it was him, I'd get as far away as possible!
