    I would check transportation on craigslist. Theyre not the best companies or equipment or pay but ive seen several sap options for my area. The thing about operating a cmv is that its a safety sensitive role. No drugs/weed even on time off unless youre willing to find a different career. Some companies do hair folicle which goes back even further. And no alcohol within 48 hours of operating. I went to a private cdl school and they gave me a ua before admitting me and went over all of this thoroughly. I had a minor incident this year and was taken quickly to breathalyzer and ua. Just something to contemplate while looking for work.

    Yeah, Craigslist and Facebook both have trucker pages and jobs are easy to find there.

    Have you been consuming any CBD products lately?

    Or, have you been losing weight lately? THC is fat soluble, so if you've been losing weight recently then it's possible that THC and/or its metabolites could have been released back into your system.

    Somewhere in your town, or in the surrounding area, is an outfit that hauls gravel.

    This outfit has a reputation for terrible equipment and lousy pay. Everyone in the local gravel hauling industry knows who they are.

    Find out the name of the crappy company, then go apply.

    If hired, work there for a year, taking whatever bs they dish out.

    Then, next year, apply to one of the reputable gravel haulers.

    Somehow I dont see that driving equipment that might just kill you as being a "solution" to anything ;)

    You're looking at it logically from the point of view of an experienced driver.

    Look at it from the point of view of a desperate and inexperienced driver.
