    Have ya got a temp agency near you.
    A lot of times companies will only use a temp agency so they can get a on the job audition to see if you fit in with their program.
    That way they don't need to come up with any real or fake issues during or after a probationary period.
    They can just send you away without any ramifications.

    Brown Bottling Meridian, MMC, Peco in Philadelphia, Ryder Meridian, Valley services Meridian, Pucket Machinery (equipment delivery) Meridian all are advertising for drivers. 18-21 all local. Some are through MDES only.

    Strange about Pucket. They are advertising a minimum of 18 years old and they want 1-2 years experience? Sounds like they need an HR person with just a little common sense.

    Check Crane companies also. Just know that it is a tough job and it isn't all driving. And I'm not saying you are but just double check in the mirror before you go apply..they will run a snowflake off the job quick!!!
