check your state law on background checks quite a few can only go back 7 years and only report convictions not arrests also with some states the clock starts at time of conviction and others at time of parole

i don't know about you,but i never had to sell out to pray..

We have a religious and political forum for a reason.

Those are some serious felonies.Don't think yuo'll find a trucking job for a long while.See if that school can help and ask them what you should do about paying for schooling if u can't find a trucking job.

You'll get hired,
it may take longer,
but,
you'll get hired !!!!HarlemPlayer Thanks this. -
Ok, main thing I'd be thinking about what you told us if I were doing the hire is "Will this guy go ballistic every time something goes wrong?" Y'see, this job is full of "confrontation moments" with shippers/recievers,etc and the last thing I want is a driver who's gonna go Rambo alla time.
Be aware that you will NOT be taking any cross-border freight EVER with that violent felony.... and their data base never changes.
Still, there is a possibility of a better future out there for you. Just gonna be harder to find is all. Personally, I'm betting on you... go for it.bullhaulerswife and Bill104 Thank this. -
I thank everyone for there comments and advice.no I'm not a nut case. and I got job as soon as I was released from prison in 2002. I worked at that job until 2009 when all upper management was laid off. But due to my background and economy I could not longer work in that field. I have several family members who drive truck. and I always wanted to be on the road. It is amazing at how people think. We all make mistakes some are more serious than others. I just want a chance to get job and prove myself. Once again I thank everyone for there advice and comments.
Be safe on the road everyone.

I got a grant to go to school. Yes I understand that these are serious crimes when it coms to trucking and life in general. but i qualify for hazmat and the twic card. I'm in the process of getting both. I have done alot of research into the trucking in industry. And I understand that this will be a hard and long road. But after being in prison nothing is hard to me. I will succeed I just wanted some sound advice from people in the field. My family told me that it was going to be hard. But if u want something bad enough you can achieve it. Thanks for the reality check.

Oh you was in prison.That's a whole nother issue.Good luck finding a trucking job.Sure you can find a job in another field,but unless a close friend or relative hires you,im afraid it's going to be difficult finding a trucking company that'll give you a chance.A friend of mine was in the pen for 25 yrs.He found a job and still employed there.He's a welder at loadking.
