    The city is light on clean drivers. Took us months to replace 2 drivers. And we offer a pretty good deal. If there are no "i wont do that" in your lists you will find something. What part of the city? Pay goals? Day/night ect?

    I just started with a company called Wholesale Produce Supply in Minneapolis. Best pay and benefits I’ve ever had. They are looking for 1 more driver right now

    I've driven local about 8 years ago and then had to quit due to family problems (kids) I just started with an otr company and plan on driving otr for the next year and then find something local. I'm living down around Mankato area.

    How much experience are they looking for? I have been on the road only a month. I have experience from like 8 years ago not sure that is going to help me or hurt me.
