      Good luck my friend try not to quit until after your first year. Just heads up there are reasons why there are high turnover for new truck drivers. You are going to work 60 to 70 hours a week making 1k gross (around 20-22 bucks an hour if you count all hours). Eatting diet will be all over the place, irregular time zones, irregualar appointment time, irregular sleep patterns (you got to wake up early or sleep late or vice versa). Some shippers dont let you use the restroom. Super long wait time at shippers receivers while you only get peanuts detention reimbursement. Equipment trailers don't work (or flat tires/ bald) because other drivers don't report (due to pay per mile). Snow, winter traffic shutdown while you only get paid miles driven meaning your pay will get a hit. YOu need to focus 8 to 14 hours a day constantly while driving you can't just zone out a couple seconds - it could mean life or death to you and other ppl around you (versus office where you can zone out). No truck routes, low clearance, no uturn, DOT etc etc. Overweight rework (the shippers load it incorrectly) where it wastes your time but you dont get paid. The list goes on...I am just barely cover some stuff. Anyways get your experience there and go local hourly union so you can go home every night and have better pay and pension etc etc.
