    lil me, everything was good and no negativity until this guy got mad at me because I thanked someone else. but in previous replies I did thank everyone for their advice. A forum is her to discuss things and in the end i took their advice on just listing all of my jobs. You don't seem to get it, that he is the one that insulted me first saying he hopes I do not make it in this business. all because I didnt thank him presonally like I did with someone else. He may have experience, but he is also a problem starter.

    If you started from the beginning you would see this.

    insulting a person because of race, color or lack of smarts, name calling...none of which i had done.....

    no matter how i said, "you won't make it in this business", IS NOT an insult....it was a FACT based on my years of experience, and many here are seeing that you actually look bad in this.

    good bye.....

    No, they just are playing the buddy buddy system. I took what you said as an insult. "That you hope I will not make it in this business." But hey im over it, can we just let bye gons be bye gons? I appologize if I insulted you, you have to understand that I am taking this trucking thing seriously, so when you said that. I got protective is all. So again, my bad for anything I have said. I hope you can please accept my apology.

    Best regards,
    SanJoaquin209

    That's pretty much the same thing as some friends that I have who've worked as barbers or work in small town general stores which are "paid outta the register " or such as yours, cash jobs. Eventhough you may not file taxes for the job, it's still job history. So to answer your question, yes I'd include it.

    And eventhough I didn't get thanked:biggrin_25510: lol, to the OP, you're welcome for the advice. I'm attending school soon, and we both may need all the goodluck we can get!

    I just finished an application for Con-way. OMG that took so long listing everything. I mean at some point I had to guess the dates, but they were all there. Con-way pays top dollar and i have heard great things about them. Check em out.
