Living on painkillers

Then there you go. Go back to it and if you can't find a job doing that than re file with proof

 

Hope you find a good job that won't aggravate your medical problems.

 

teach and tell them to supplement your income to something you can live on.

trucking can really be hard on the body. even if you have it ,easy as I do, don't touch squat.

but,Ive paid my dues and my body tells me about.lol

the uncomfortable beds , not all can have a decent mattress ,and the sitting and bouncing for 10-11 hrs can be rough.

 

By the sounds of your inguries / ailments I would not suggest getting into trucking , it would be very hard for you to pass the physical aspect of the testing.

 

If you want to ease into trucking industry try dispatching. If not that go to school to turn wrenches. No good to try and drive and then you get out there and some moron runs into you and you have to take a drug test after you happened to take a pain pill a day before. You get bounced for pissing positive good chance of getting sued and still have no job to raise your boys with. My suggestion to you is either find a way to manage your pain without meds or find a job that allows them.

 

Any narcotic medication will probably prevent you from passing a DOT physical. If you can pass a physical, there are companies that may hire you. You could start out doing team driving with a coast-to-coast operation.
Some companies are drop & hook, such as shipping container companies or companies specializing in hauling auto parts.
Your problem is not insurmontable, if you find the right niche in trucking.
Attend a CDL school & some drivers on this forum can direct you when it's application time during the school. Forget the mega carriers; there are others that will be a fit for you.
