    You will be a expense for insurance of the company. Nothing is free not even your labor even if you say you want zero income.

    Hang in there, you will find a place and get your experience. Don't worry about that.

    Scroll down to the "Seeking Employment" thread and put your info on there.
    I doubt a company will hire you to work for free; I think that's illegal. Some owner-operator with a one truck operation might do it.

    Nick Strimbu Inc. might hire you and train you if you get your cdl permit and dot medical card.
    Why not just go to Millis Transfer in Hamilton,OH
