Will I be hireable?

I would have to say you're done. Not forever but its a long road to get behind a truck again. You tested positive on a drug test. I went to CR England's orientation once, I decided I didn't like what I heard and left. I drove my own car to SC and then back, the only cost they occurred was me staying in their building. Long story short, I leave and apply to another company, they tell the new company that I tested positive on their drug test. I keep every piece of paperwork given to me.

I called the actual testing company, they said that was totally not true and to tell them where to fax the results and it would be there within ten minutes. I ended up suing CR England for an undisclosed amount.

 

I started driving in 11/2007, nothing happened for 1.5yrs. Then in 02/09 i got a ticket for failure ot obey a traffic control device. Then in 09/09 i had a minor backing incident, (non-reportable). About a month later i hurt my back and was off for 4wks. When i returned to work they fired me the next day for having a 4oz. bottle of crown royal in the cubbard that i had won in july at a golf tournament. i had for gotten about it. now i cant find a job, what do i do? ive called the indianapolis carrier and they wont do anything. pls send advice. thanks billshott palm bay fl.

 

With all these problems, I'm afraid you folks may have to work for

























THE GOVERNMENT !!!!!

 

You guys are done. The drug/alcohol allegations are enough to do it without the tickets.

 

Would you like to super size that order?

Is it for here or to go?


Time to practice for the next level testing.

 

Look at other fields guys, you are pretty much cooked in the trucking industry. I suggest now is a good time to attend schooling (welding, plumbing, electrician, etc.) and this will also give you time to try and staighten up your past misdeeds the best that you can. Good luck.

 

Haz mat sand removal !!!! Pays BIG money, and they're hiring !!!

 

Great idea Gone... but unfortunately with those trade jobs once you graduate no one will touch you w/o 3-5 years experience (at least here in my part of the country) and the job market is flooded with trades people looking for work- check ''threads'' on ''I want to drive truck and was doing_________ but my job got shiftcanned.'' *sarcasm*
I am not saying school is not an answer. Just my husband did that route trades school after laid off 5/07 and then got his CDL A. The economy is just TOUGH for everyone out there.
I wish there was an answer cuz it seems like drivers get raked over the coals for farting in the wrong direction. And there are ALOT of newbs getting into driving now as an option and there are alot coming back.

I wish you all good luck in you endevors.
