Minor Backing Accident - Non-DOT, Won't Go On Abstract, No DAC

Don't lose too much sleep over it. But be totally honest about it on future job applications. It wont stop you from getting a job in the future but it could cost you one they find about about it later and realized you tried to hide it. If there was documentation of the incident by your employer then your next potential employer will know about it when they fax current employer "the paper" to fill out on you.

There are lots of driving job in Seattle but fuel hauling gigs almost definitely wont touch anybody without 2 years experience. Insurance companies are real serious about that one. I know Old Dominion starts newbs at $20 in Seattle and pays OT after 40 and good benefits. I can personally vouch that it was a very nice and well organized place to work. (Probably was dumb for quitting but I left the area.) Franz bakery is also a top driving job around if you can get your foot in the door there. It's a union shop though so there's some of that BS to deal with when you're the FNG. OD will work your ### off but you'll make money. I think top pay is probably up around $26/hr by now.

 

I agree with Brandon. Don't hide the job, nor the incident. If it's not black-marked against you as you said; you should be okay.

Drivers are all but micro-chipped anymore, what with facing cams and everything. If the potential companies find out you lied to one, chances are somehow the 2nd 3rd 4th etc... will find out. You'll end up blackballing your self.

Did you lose your job over this incident, or are you just planning in advance?

Best of luck, be safe!

 

Being honest is far better than lying and them finding out.

 

If there is no "citation," per se, and the company didn't report it, you should be okay. You'll be closer to the TOP of the pile, for being honest. Most of the 2nd chance companies that hire people with tainted records, have those for "some sort" of dishonesty.
Yes, you in my opinion are totally employable. Listen to recommendations by @Chinatown as to new and broader horizons to go to. In my many years, I've met many men with worse "incidents" that simply "carry-on.."

ps: are you still employed there? if you got terminated over this, it may prove more difficult . . . I'm no expert; i'm old-school ..... just read a lot.

(The cool-band logo is my 16 year old daughter's..... i know, its a band, but i just like the graphics, and seeing the sun rise on the horizon, Lol!)

 

Understand, man. Your opportunities are yours, and the horizon is wherever you choose it to end. I think you have a great outlook, and you'll be okay.
Check out the places mentioned to you here, I've known (or met?) guys with SO many bigger issues, that are rollin' hard and banking. Keep the faith!

 

Meh don't worry about it.

I got one of those on my record one time.
Bumped a guy left a black mark on his white truck & he called the cops. #### happens...

Had no trouble finding work.
Gaps in employment will cause you more trouble than that booboo.

So find that next gig quickly. I can get away with gaps but not having much experience you won't have such luxury.

 

WTF is a abstract.
