Hello all. I’m in central Illinois. I only have 5 months under my belt with 3 of those months being solo. I did get rookie of the month this last July (probably doesn’t matter here though). I’m looking for a regional gig if possible. I am a Veteran, 8 years Marine Corps Infantry, honorably discharged, and 10 years of overseas high threat security consulting. I’m trying to slow down on my deployments and break into a new career. Yes, I still currently work overseas most of the year. 60-75 days overseas and 30-90 days home (rinse and repeat). Unique scheduling to say the least. Most companies I’ve talked to have politely declined, with only the mega carriers saying, “we can work with that, you’ll just have to quit and rehire every time.” Currently working with Schneider as a dedicated driver (meh, not good or bad) and deploying as a security consultant. Finding a good match is hard to say the least. Convincing the wife is another. Please let me know. Thanks.
Vet looking for options.

1. Where would you call "home" when stateside?
2. Did you drive anything in the Military like a Dragon Wagon? -
2. I used to have an MRAP license. The gen 1 and gen 2 6x6s and 4x4s. 2008ish - 2012ish. HMMWV license too. One of those guys that was voluntold to get them… They’re all super expired and lost… -
As for the MRAP thing, technically not like-type. But once again, it all depends upon how this could be worded for insurance. You might need another stint driving at home for us to be able to work with you, but we'd look at the part-time route, and placing you inactive each time you head back out (prevents missed random screenings). Part-time drivers make the same pay, they just get no benefits. -
