I went through the hiring process at May and they already had my DMV and DAC before I went to orientation. They hire based on points and a suspension 16 years ago would not be enough points unless it was for DUI. They only go back 10 years for anything else and only assign points if within the last 3 years. You also have 5 years experience and unless it was before 92 you have driven since and currently have a valid license, right?

first I had to put up with you telling me I did not know what the condition of the trailers I hauled for May was on other threads. When unlike me, you never worked for May or drove their trailers. Now you are trying to tell me they got squeamish on hiring you because of a license suspension 16 years ago?

I have worked for 3 other OTR carriers besides May. And Mays hiring criteria was the most lenient of the 4. But none would of disqualified me for a suspension 16 years ago unless it was due to a DUI or some other felonious behavior.

I read what you wrote just fine and deduced that it was bull. Just like I deduced that your claim that they kicked you to the curb for missing orientation on missed conformation msgs was bull also. What will your next fable be?

Gordon's hiring criteria is higher them Mays and you failed at both and who know how many others.

I would not waste my time with CR England because A they use DAC and B they also will see your history of being turned down at other carriers. And will find out why.

P.S. Do not apply at Interstate Dist either. If May and Gordon curbed you, they will also.

I know they are not a good company but if they will give you a chance it may open doors later down the road for you.

One of their hiring requirements is no current license suspensions well you got yours back in 02 that should not dq you from them.

Little mistakes? The not shifting on the tracks is a simulation based on if you are driving a hazmat load. Unsafe operation of a CMV is not a little mistake.

The not shifting on the tracks comes from the fact that they dont want you accidentally killing the motor on the tracks by popping the clutch or something and not being able to get it restarted. This is not a little mistake either, as a trainer or an instructor I would fail you automatically and the test would be over and you would be in the passenger seat when we got back to the yard. Most companies driving test takes you over a railtrack on purpose to see if you will do this.

This goes for all of you, even though I only see one that is currently guilty of it. Name calling is not tolerated here.
