Your in farm country. I assume you have a CDL? Most railroad guys I know have one because the company pays extra for it. Farmers will be needing drivers for Harvest season in the spring, they start somewhere down in Texas and harvest all the way up the middle to Canada. I have never done it but several members here got there start that way. I have seen there ads for years willing to train drivers in February and early march so they will have there CDL by spring.

 

I have seen many harvest truck driver jobs posted where they will train you to get your CDL using there equipment.. Some farmers and crews are already looking. You have to sell your self and be willing to work.

Schneider is ok. There's plenty others to choose from after you get the cdl. Here's a couple that hire new cdl grads.
Don Hummer Trucking is headquartered in Iowa.
Schuster is headquartered in Iowa. Their big account is Blue Bunny Ice Cream.

 

The down side I see is that you worked for the BNSF as a hog head. Everyone knows that the really good guys are car toads.

Plus you were Army, again, the real fighters are Air Force.

As to employment history, an employer has to make three attempts to verify your employment. They do not judge your history, they only have to fill in a box. I had to verify my own employment, only 1 of my past employers returned the inquiry.

Good luck with your health issues.
