    Bad news, Con-way can't hire me because I've been unemployed since 2008 :biggrin_2556: I didn't even realize it would be a problem. Since I found out late Friday evening I was only able to call 2 other companies. Found one, Swift, that will hire me as long as I get 2 notarized letters stating that I have been unemployed for 3 years, and a printout of my social security report.

    Anyway, going to call a bunch more companies on Monday. I'm not going to give up. If anyone reading this knows of a company that hires students in my situation please let me know!

    Don't give up, just a bump in the road. Call CRST :biggrin_2552: just remember u will have to team, but at least u can get started. it won't be easy but nothing worthwhile ever is. Good luck and keep us posted.
