    Some thoughts from the other side of the cesspool... Aka Lewis county.

    Biggest concern for me is the speeding ticket.

    Secondary concern: Are you still able to get into Canada?

    If you can still get into Canada may want to look into cross border stuff in the Lynden area.

    May want to check in with local roadwork, dump truck and side dump folks. The construction industry companies will be more likely to give you honest feedback on employability.

    Logging companies/lumber mills would be another option. Chip trucks come to mind if you want to stay more on the blacktop.

    You’re going to have a difficult time getting hired even with the lowest of the low because of that 22 over because the insurance carries aren’t going to sign off on you.

    That said, apply anyway. Apply with logging outfits and ready mix outfits. Those two are about as low as it gets and will pretty much hire anyone with a pulse.
