I would like to have worked for Boyd but in one of my earlier replies, Boyd was very rude when I called them. I wouldnt work for them now if they did call me just because of the rude person that answered the phone. It makes me think that they would be rude the drivers as well.

Keep looking, you will find something, I hope sooner, rather than later. There are plenty of people out here doing a very safe job who made mistakes when they were younger.. I believe in second chances.
Well, I did a little research on Expungments in Missouri and among other qualifying conditions.....first and foremost....the arrest would have to be made based on false information. Without going into details, in a way it was based on false information but nonetheless, it was in my house so Im gonna forget about the expungment.

I filled out an app for Transland and ATS so now I play the waiting game.

Thanks for the advice.
