what happened to your license that was messed up.
-
My DOT long form had something missing then when Covenant had me do a new one and saw that I had a mental illness they said I needed work release
-
Ouch that will hurt you
-
Do you live in Memphis?
Are you released for work now? -
I do live in Memphis and no I have to wait three months for this new dr to "get to know me" before she will release me for work so in the mean time I gotta bust ### for the next couple of months to pay my loan out of pocket 100% way I see it I've got this far just a little while longer I do it for the money I know I'll make but I also want to drive because I love being behind the wheel
-
OK, just have to wait it out.
Meanwhile, start researching companies.
When the time is right, apply to several companies.
Ozark Motor Lines
Abilene Motor Express
USA Truck
Milan Express
TransAm
Navajo Express
Freymiller
Paschall Truck Lines
Benny Whitehead Trucking
May Trucking Company
Tyson Foods
Lily
North American Van Lines
& plenty more if you don't like these. -
When you did a new Physical for Covenant you listed a past mental illness? Or listed medication you currently take for a mental illness?
-
Both and about the companies I have a bad background so only a few will hire me
-
I'd skip that part next time
