So, I'm back home now and without a CDL. I do at least have my Permit but man....
It took me a while to begin training because PAM dropped me. No problem, USA Truck picked me up. I started class on the June 16th. Everything was great for the first week. Not counting that everyone requested the classroom to be kept at #### near freezing everyday and I only pack for SUMMER in ARKANSAS. Therefore, I ended up getting sick and going to the local hospital. Now before that, I still hadn't received my medical card because of a prescription my doctor had to stop prescribing me. Before going into the hospital, I alerted everyone of the situation and expected them to have it resolved when I got out. Instead, I get out and still don't have a medical card therefore causing me to be DQ'd. So, YAY ME!!! I'm home again without a license through really no fault of my own.

If any of you know any places here in Mississippi that I should look at after getting my CDL, please let me know. Right now, I know that Waste Pro in Jackson may have a job for me as the owner's wife was the Coke rep at my previous job. But I'd really not like to be a trash man, even if it is 40k starting out and home nightly. There's got to be something that puts me in a semi going state to state. If you all know of any places, let me know. I'm looking for about the same salary tho. -
BTW, I found out why I was dq'd. I have Sickle Cell and my medication for it is an opiate. The physician who conducted the physicals at C1 did not want to give me a medical card until he had a written note from my doctor stating that she would no longer prescribe me the meds. He did not receive the note from doctor in time and thus dq'd me.
When I found this out, I was concerned about the same outcome here at home a little but come to find out, my med isn't on the "banned" list. I was dq'd from C1 for absolutely NOTHING! LOL. I think it worked out for the best though. I can get the ball rolling a lot faster here at home. And with so many local trucker friends, I have no problem finding a truck to test out with. Gotta learn to drive a truck with more than 10 gears though but I'm told there's nothing to it. -
