    Didn't someone write a beer drinking song about you; "For He's a Jolly Good Felon" or something like that?

    Yes, CFI www.cfidrive.com looks at criminal records on a case by case basis. Good company with their own cdl school.
    Millis Transfer - has their own cdl school and hires felons on a case by case basis. Fancy trucks set up for driver comfort.
    *Best to do the online application, then call in a couple of days and say, "I'm checking on my job application."

    If you attend a private cdl school, submit applications the first day of school. Some students even submit applications a few days before school starts. This way you will know which companies will hire you when you get job offers.

    You won't be able to go to Canada with a misdemeanor for 10 years. If you have a felony, you won't ever be able to go there. Outfits that go to Canada will want to know your criminal history.
