I loved my work environment and all my coworkers. Everyone is so helpful and friendly. Everyone is legitimately friends and cares about you and your life. And their dress is business casual/casual. You are fine to wear jeans and a t-shirt to work which is nice.
I liked the fast pace environment and how they let you take the reigns pretty fast. I learned a lot about the industry with this job.
What I wish was different
I wish I knew that we'd have to go into the office earlier. Most people work 7-4 every day, some 6-3, and some 8-5.
Advice
Definitely go in 7-4 when most people are working, but whatever works best for your schedule.
You will get comfortable talking on the phone because you are on the phone all day talking to truck drivers and their dispatches.
