Considering Returning to Trucking

You are ASSUMING CORRECTLY at least you know what to expect , not like some that were supposedly TRUCKER OF THE YEAR 15 years ago and goes Ballistic when he gets told his past history means nothing after being off the road more than 3 years .

 

Was in a truck once where my buddy almost rear-ended.

guys used to mock his accent on CB radio too.

Called him @#$%-&*()

 

If you can get around the insurances companies, or get with a company with self insurance, plus someone that offers a refresher course, that would probably be the best way to go IMO, other than that, you need to know someone. You know that already. Best Of Luck To You !!!

 

it has not IMPROVED thats for sure !

 

Most of us know it is more work looking for a job than it is having one, but making an attempt to latch on to a solid three year company (good company) is going to be real tough with no recent experience. Get with the flatbed drivers on this form, see if they can help you out, if ya haven't already done so. The hardest delivery is the one when we must percent or selves to an employer. I think I know how you feel. We can do the work, I do not think anyone doubts that, but I have burned some bridges in the past, and that long gap that you talked about has made it a long road getting back into the industry. If ya discover a legitimate short cut to a good job, let us in on it. I will do the same, if fortune finds me first.
Good Luck, And All The Best !!!
