    Clarify. What company were you driving for and got fired from? Did you get fired from the driving job because they found out about your Walmart termination after 5 months? What year did you do the 5 months of driving and was it tractor trailer? You say you got fired from Walmart. Was this a second job or did the company you drive for contract out to Walmart?

    I was employed by Walmart Transportation, pulling 53' dry vans and reefers. I had worked for a store for about 6 years and they have a program to give store and DC associates their CDL and drive for the private fleet. I graduated that program and was a Walmart driver, unloading my truck at a store I was delivering to when I bought the groceries that the security camera caught.

    Knutson Towboat Co is located at 400 N Front St in Coos Bay, Oregon 97420
    This one has advertised for CDL-A drivers in the past.
    Might even get a good job on a towboat.
