    Guys even if you do its a free country that's what makes a democracy the freedom to do as you please if you's already have your cdl's there's no reason why a company wouldn't hire you as for pay rates shop around keep knocking keep searching and you will find something worthwhile.
     
    Strange Tourist Thanks this.

    Just to add to the previous post Aussie land and quite a few other countries have what is known as a working holiday visa years ago it was mainly between our (mother country) England [GB] and Australia now a few other countries have thought that this was a pretty good idea and come on board basically it gave you the opportunity to work and live in the country that issued the visa for up to 18 months the restriction was there was an age limit between 19 - 32 y.o which i think kind of discriminates against older folks. In Australia we also have a provision that if those on the working holiday are wishing to continue beyond the 18 months and are prepared to work in an industry where jobs are in demand such as agriculture etc etc then they can also extend this period of stay.

    I remember reading about that. It was a dream of mine to live in Australia, but I haven't made it there yet. This summer I'll be too old to do that program . Thanks for the tidbit!
