    Try schneider, they seem pretty easy to please, heck they hired me! So far so good with em too. Shorter orientation than most. A pretty good starter company from what ive been able to gather.

    thats a BMI of 43, you need to get down to around 240 just to be under 35. If you had odor problems someone somewhere would have mentioned it.
    any idea what your blood pressure was on dot test?

    Apply with companies in your area such as System Transport, Interstate Distributor, Apergis Transportation. Do online applications with them and also look at Careerbuilder for other companies. Try Panther Expedite for cargo vans. Apply with Western Express and Buel Inc. and Watkins & Shepard and Navajo. Don't just apply with the normal companies the CDL schools usually have recruiting. Keep doing applications; something will hit soon. Here's another one, Paschall Truck Lines. OK, that's 9 companies to try, plus Careerbuilder website.

    Could also be the fact that you were fired from your most recent job. Where I work they wont hire you if your LAST employer fired you. The one before last is fine, but not the last one.

    Big companies dont care about why things happened, that clogs up the bureaucracy.

    Ok, so I applied at May and at Schneider. They both want me to come to orientation, May starts next tuesday, schneider late this month. I'm scheduled for both,I figure if May decides they dont want me, then I'll go with Schneider. May sounds like the better company for me. there terminal is twice as close as Schneider, and they start me off making more :)
