Just a truck stop lawyer,nah. But I'd take a job sniping at lawyers if you know of one. -
The same reason as most people.money!and i cant put my son through callage with a normal job.but youve ben in it for 17 years so i guess you have yours.i can see why you have only been thanked 1 time in77 posts.thanks for nothing.

You should not worry about those infractions, they are way too old! Sounds like you need to contact more trucking companies and talk to the recruiters. Maybe it's too soon to hire a lawyer also? I understand how you feel about taking care of your family and all. Surely theres a company out there that can use you - beat the #### bushes till you find one. You think those people haven't made any mistakes. Heck they have something in there past too. I'll say a prayer for you tonight - good luck partner. Chuckster

I am not sure, if this varies from company to company, but the ones he applied to where the largerer ones.I wish I could be more help!! Please chose your company wisely, do alot of research!! I wish you the best of luck, with your new venture!!!
