    No problem with hijacking. Not sure what PM and OP stand for. Please clue me in. Also, would you have any idea what the stars next to the thread mean.

    Skydivedavec , not to worry about my years I put all 40 years in , not time for me to go to the house , can still out truck most on here , sorry I am not part of the majority with GO FOR IT.

    I was just stating / pointing out a REALISTIC fact to the OP that many fail to realize , companies have age restrictions on hiring TRAINEES imposed on them by their insurance carriers.

    The stars are just a "scale" that goes up (gets stars added) as your post count goes up. It takes a while to earn each added star.
    Also, we all start out as "Bobtail member", but that changes "up the ranks" at certain post-level intervals.
    BTW (By The Way), If you see OP on this thread... that means YOU. (Original Poster):thumbleft:

    there's a lot older than that, out there, your problem is someone to let you drive with no experience some of the large companies might train you and get you your licence try calling them.....

    Thanks. Any ideas on which ones to call. Also, when you say some might train me, do you mean they will help me get my CDL?
