Schooling and Employment

ok, I just started classes about 2 weeks ago and I know that I am young....19(I tried the college thing and it werent for me so I really dont want to hear about maybe I should find another profession).....Does anyone know of any companies in Michigan that would hire me to drive or will I be outta luck until I turn 21? I know that I can only drive in state and was just hoping that someone could help me out...my instructors are as of right now but I would like to start getting my name out there...if you know what I am saying....and I have heard of getting with a construction company or something of that sort too and havent had much luck with that either....so if you info on this too, I would really appreciate that as well!!

Thank you in advance!!
Eric

You may also want to try rural farming communities for hauling grain.

I know we have a couple of young bucks working in our yard dropping and hooking - spotting trailers etc etc - they want to hit the road when they turn 21...


I helped dad with farm work growing up (grain trucks / livestock) but back then (mid 80's - early 90's) you did not need a cdl in Indiana...
