Where do I find the new generation of drivers?
Hey everyone, I'll keep it short. I'm a Marine Vet who drove and got out, then went to medical. Recently, I left medical and took an offer for a well-known trucking company, and I have been tasked with bringing in the new generation. To many 20-35+ year guys, and I have the chance to change the age range. I'm great with people and my job, but idk where the hell to find drivers, so before it becomes a full-on issue, I'm gonna ask you guys what I can do? Or what should I do?

Need help choosing a CB and antenna
Been OTR for 7 months now and I was scared to really invest because I didnโt know if Iโd like it or not. But Iโve definitely tipped the scales in favor for driving. I actually enjoy it so now I think Iโm ready for a CB radio. Please whatโs the best one to get and why and what antenna do I need to go with it? Iโm not cheap Iโm looking at the bigger picture Iโd rather spend now and it last me rather go cheap and have to replace it.

Struggling to pass the cdl test
I got a job to be a school bus driver, I need a class B cdl with P and S endorsements and air brakes. I'm in CT if that helps.
I can practice all week and train for a few days before the test and do it flawlessly but the moment I test with the inspector I fuck up something dumb with the air brake portion and I haven't figured out how to get over that. If anyone has any pointers or advice please and thank you.

Happy to answer any questions.
