    Also, I didn't mean any disrespect about saying they hire anyone with a pulse. I worked for Covenant and you didn't even need a pulse there

    Couple of things might have gotten you. 1st was the old weapons charge, 2nd was not telling her about the car getting hit. Have to look at it from their point of view. (Your car got hit and you did not tell them, yet they more than likely found out about it. So they are probably thinking what else did you not tell us)
    Just saying, but you have to understand they take in 50-100 students a week with nothing on their record. So what they will tell you is that there were more qualified people. Sorry but thats the way it is. Try Kelly transport or maybe ITS, I think they are also down in your area. Good luck and hang in there.

    Reefers coast to coast: Youngs Transportation in Fresno, CA

    The 100 hr. school is what's hurting you, but some companies are ok with it and others will want to give you more training.

    Try some other outfits that will accept that 100 hr. school, then after 6 mos. you can go about anywhere. Here's a few that might take you. Just do what you have to do for 6 months.

    Safer Transportation - terminal in LA
    KKW Trucking in Pomona
    DSW Trucking
    Carolina Logistics
    Western Express
    Watkins-Shepard
