No charge for this part. A few things worth knowing before you spend a dollar with anybody — including us.
Fitzgerald came home in 2009 with a bus pass and $62.39. Trucking is one of the few businesses that will still pay you what you’re worth after a hard chapter — if you learn it right.

Expedite and hotshot, less-than-truckload, last-mile, big-truck full truckload — they pay differently and they live differently. Pick on purpose.

The advice call is $25 and goes straight to Fitzgerald. The Academy takes it all the way.
