Considering a career change and need help

Bad thing is, the insurance companies control trucking more than trucking does. If they tell trucking companies they cant hire you, then they cant hire you.

 

Dont give up commuter69 ....get those issues cleared up tho !!!
.....being a trucker your license is the most important tool of the tool box ....ask how long this stuff will be on your MVR ....probly about 5yrs tho !!!
....wish u well driver

 

I worked ther & its organized and its a waste

 

The companies are not going to believe this anymore than the drivers here do.

 

Try western express after you get it all resolved they are a 2nd chance company from what i hear but im not sure if they have there own school or not but PM Chinatown im sure he will be able to help u out good luck to you

 

Get a copy of your MVR to see exactly what's on it.
If you currently have a drivers license, then start applying to schools and eventually one will accept you. You don't have any serious infractions such as wrecks, speeding, DUI, etc. so you should be OK.
Start the online applications and be accurate on the information asked for. Be accurate on the applications; you don't want to be sent away over some mistake on the application.

Since you're homeless , I listed schools some may disagree with, but your situation can't wait.

JBS Carriers and Southern Refrigerated Transport don't have much about their school on the website, so call them; their toll free numbers are on the websites.

 

Please remember if you do decided to change and come on the road , after you get 6months with a company, specialize go into overzise,carhauling, hazmat, and others,also be sure to get all endorsements to make your self more marketable

If you read correctly, noone called you irresponsible.

The person that mentioned the word "responsible" said: "The only responsible advice I can give you is...."


Regarding your questions:
You may not be able to land yourself a great company, maybe not even a good company to start with, but you'll start somewhere and after putting some experience you may be able to move to greener pastures. Just my 2 cents...
