Trucker Hits The Road With Healthy Food

Friday, August 31st, 2012

 

Delaware Online has a fantastic story about a truck driver named Rick Ash, who dropped a lot of weight by eating better and exercising. In 2010, Ash quit drinking coffee, substituting green tea and lots of water, and started eating salmon, baked chicken, brown rice and vegetables.
“A lot of fruit, melon and cottage cheese,” Ash says. “I know that’s not going to sound appetizing to a lot of truck drivers. But now, one of my favorite meals is a salad.”

Truck Driver Testimonials – Jarrod and Barb

Friday, August 3rd, 2012

Jarrod and Barb N. were looking for a new career in the truck driving industry. They both wanted to talk the 160 Hour Professional Tractor Trailer Program, but couldn’t get to the school everyday for the classes and course work. So they took the online training from Interstate and they were both able to finish the training quicker than they thought. Here is what they had to say about their training at ITDS.

“The 160 Hour Course gave a very good information on truck driving. The flexibility of still working and doing the online course was great. It was a great learning experience.” – Jarrod

“The flexibility offered with the online option is the main reason we went to Interstate. If I had any concerns or questions, there was always someone there to help. The instructors knowledge, experience and patience is what makes this program so exceptional.” – Barb
