    Aww man....so a lack of experience is killing you in the job hunt. You couldn't have transferred with Pepsi or was it a far commute?

    I'm sorry to hear that bro. That covid had been a pain in the rear for many local drivers, but itll get better soon hopefully.

    I just checked openings for all of the LTL companies near you, and Saia, Southeastern, AAA Cooper, XPO, and R+L all have openings. If a lack of experience is something you think it's hindering you in finding a job, Southeastern is hiring for a final mile position that's non-CDL, and R+L is hiring for a Class B position, so both of those might be a good way to get your foot in the door if you'd like to pursue LTL.

    You pulling a short long box for a month or two doesn't mean anything to them, you don't have the TIME behind the wheel.
