Three felony convictions.Do I have a chance?

That's a positive!

I know a guy that held up the Coffee County, Tennessee jail at gunpoint, broke his girlfriend out, stole a deputies gun while in the process, mailed the gun back a week later as a joke and he didn't have any problems after a couple decades in Leavenworth with some stacked charges. His was just an error in judgement; don't we all make mistakes in life?

 

People can and do change when given a chance as I was given in the late 80's

 

Im all for second chances but we're talking more than a second chance here and that's not counting the misdemeanors. Would you hire someone to haul a truckload of big screen televisions with this kind of record? Again, I'm all for second chances but let's be realistic

 

The unemployment office and CDL school may require pre-hire letters. The unemployment office doesn't want to spend funding for school if you can't be hired after graduation. The school doesn't want it on their record that you graduated and now can't find work. Don't request pre-hire letters until you talk to the school and unemployment office so you know exactly what they want.

 

Try Western Express or Werner.. being they rob their drivers you should have a pretty good shot.

 

That's a hell of a mistake. I guess having to earn anything went out the window long ago, just do whatever you want and someone will pick up the pieces.....

 

You should have thought about trucking before you decided to get 3 felonies. Now you're at the mercy of the worst companies out there. Congratulations.

 

No one here is offering you a job. If you came here hoping for some motivational speech about making mistakes and salvation from sins then so far you got it. Unfortunately it's not a real job offer. I suggest that you call trucking companies directly and ask them if they will hire a person with your background. If you get a yes then go for it. But if all you get are a bunch of negatives then you need to save your time and your money and do something else.
