    Thanks brother. One of my favorite quotes, "The man who won't stand up for something, will fall for anything."

    You're right. I would like to think of my life as one continuous prayer.

    I appreciate all of the help I've been given on this thread. I've posted what that famous old radio announcer would call, "the rest of the story" in a thread entitled, http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...239492-the-whole-truth-nothing-but-truth.html

    Whenever you guys have some time, please give it a shot.

    THANK YOU EVERYONE !

    Here's a Schneider job in Harrison with a $2500.00 signing bonus and advertise $60K per year. It's a dedicated account. Apply; the worst that can happen is "Application Denied."


    Qualifications

    • Valid Class A CDL
    • Live within 90 miles of Harrison, AR
    • Must apply for a passport prior to hire
    • Minimum 6 months of recent Class A driving experience

    Watkins & Shepard is good and have a terminal in Myrtle, MS. Might hire you if you live within 150 miles or so of the teminal.

    Ignore any "experience required" because some companies bend their own hiring rules at times.

    Big-M Transportation is worth applying for.

    Tyson Foods
    Melton Truck Lines
    Trailiner Corp.

    There's more options if you have tanker/hazmat & TWIC.

    Interesting. Big Orange, huh?

    Thing is - until I get an answer to this thread http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...239492-the-whole-truth-nothing-but-truth.html , I won't know what to put on my application.

    What's confusing is that, as helpful as people were in this thread, they are exactly the opposite in the above-mentioned thread. No answers, just sniping smart-alecky remarks.

    It's like all the sane people went to sleep and now the drunkards have taken their place. :smt071

    I believe he said he was fired for some unknown reason other than the fact that he argued with the V.P. over the Bible?
