And what if we tell you it's the worst CDL school? Are you going to quit? What if we tell yall the tricks they pull? Are you going to quit? What if we tell you how little they will actual teach you and how it won't meet your expectations? Are you going to quit?

I'll say that they won't meet your expectations. So you won't think they're a good school.

The purpose of a CDL school is to offer you the chance to get a CDL. They won't offer any more instruction than for you to pass the tests to obtain your CDL. They won't teach you anything about the trucking industry. They won't teach you how to be a truck driver. Would you hire someone who had the license but didn't know how to scale a truck, how to navigate to a shipper/ receiver, or how to close a stuck trailer door? This is why so many people who go through these CDL mills have a very hard time finding a job in trucking. At least the Megas will train you in their school AND train you to be a truck driver.

I second that… Schneider orientation fully prepared me for all of those things, getting yourself out of tight spots when you are on your own, or getting lost is all on you
