    I'm supposed to be attending 160 Driving Academy within a few weeks once my WIOA funding is approved. I wonder if anyone at all will be willing to hire me with my background check.
    I have:
    8 year old Assault with a Deadly Weapon; Intent to Kill. Felony.
    And
    A 2 year old Failure to Return Rented Property. Misdemeanor.
    Will anyone, and I mean anyone at all hire me? What option do I have to make money with a CDL if nobody wants too hire me? Will I get hired to drive a box truck? Anything at all? I live by myself, I work fast food and donate plasma. And I refuse to do anything that will get me into trouble. Please comment with your opinion and advice. If I need to find somthing else to do besides truck driving let me know. If there's a chance for me let me know.
    Thanks.

    Don't give up on the truck driving. Get your CDL and all the endorsements.

    Western Express might hire you.
    They won't discuss a job with you until you're already attending cdl school. They'll just say, call back when you graduate or within a few days of graduation. Most companies will do the same.

    Eh. It’ll stop some places from hiring you.
    Long as you aren’t a dick head to deal with and can make good decisions both on and off the road someone will give you a shot.
    The more recent the charge, and the more it relates to theft and drugs, the worse it affects your position trying to get hired.
