Fedex Ground requires uniforms and has strict limits to appearance of trucks. Custom Critical decided to allow freedom in truck appearance, but decided to offer $1000 per year if you opted to look the way they really want you to look. Years ago, CC tried an experiment by allowing a team into...

Don't be hasty. Get your CDL. Work with other family members during the 30 days off. Do they have authority/ multiple trucks ? If no, ask why. Just because you have excess disposable income is no reasonable to squander it. This is a hard business to make money in. Very hard. Not saying...
