    1 month experience? And how recent was this 1 month experience? And was this 1 month experience solo? Some places don't count time with a trainer as experience. Megas prefer you fresh out of school so they can clean up on the Government subsidies. And you chose South Florida of all places..........Sure like a challenge don't you.........I'm Busting your chops cause you busted your own ###

    Try Willis Shaw Express.
    The Conway suggestion is good also.
    Check Southeastern; they had an ad recently for driver trainee in Orlando; Indeed website.

    Paschall Truck Lines might hire you, if they hire that far South.

    any of the Comcar companies. They are all based in Florida except WSE mentioned above (whose homebase is Elm Springs, ARK? I think). They hire students. There are many trucking companies based in Florida. Do you have any ideas about what kind of truck driving you are interested in?

    That's right, Willis Shaw Express home base is in AR, but is part of Comcar in Auburndale, FL.
