What's the loophole?

Pay for a school, and start applying. Or dock to driver programs. Or get your A, take a local B job that also has A trucks. Prove yourself worthy of being moved up...

 

Pretty much any oilfield company will hire ya if they're busy and you've got a CDL. No OTR needed, but the good ones will want to talk to ya a while, go for a drive with ya, kinda feel you out and make sure you're not a dummy.

 

Most companies will ignore their "required experience" when they need a driver, or for a good applicant.

 

i worked for a company with trucks (not a trucking company) and took it upon myself to get a license. i studied and paid for the test on my own. i've never worked otr and don't plan on it.

 

It will limit you if you wanted to go otr, many of the megas want a 160 hr corse ect.. but if your goal is local, it wont affect you.

 

Gonna need a little break down if ya want advice.

Local 20
Current cdl status
Record clean or otherwise
Goals, local otr, specialty ect..
