1. Attention employers: We now require a valid DOT# for anyone wishing to post a driving position. If your job offer doesn't contain a DOT number, it will not get past moderation and will not appear in the forum. The other requirements in the sticky at the top of this section are still required as well. Thank you for understanding.

Okay...this is the type job I need...any suggestions?

    Basically, I am looking for a driving position (prefer regional) where I am home at least on weekends...Sundays in particular - I am a christian and want to be in my home church on Sundays. I want my wife (who has health issues and is not able to work), to ride with me from day one. Get enough miles to net $600 minimum weekly. Good benefits...especially reasonable medical insurance. I'm 51 yrs. old. Clean 3 yr. MVR, current DOT health card. 20+ yrs. experience...mostly cement tanker, dump trailer, dump truck...but some van and reefer exp. I was suppose to start orientation with Pemberton next week, but just found out I would have to leave out really early every Sunday morn. to start my week, and as I said, church is an important part of my life and I do not want to miss it.
    I have Class A license with Hazmat.
    Anyone have any suggestions, or am I just asking too much? :biggrin_25512:

    At least not OTR. OTOH... Mega Millions jackpot is $325 million. I'd pray for that instead of a job.:biggrin_25517:

    I dont know why everyone is so negative. Those types of jobs are out there but might be hard to find and get into, just keep looking. Lol Boosted, 20+ years but trucking might not be for him.....good one

    Those may be out there but you sure aren'tgoing to find them on an internet forum. You gotta know somebody to get those jobs!
