  1. Attention employers: We now require a valid DOT# for anyone wishing to post a driving position. If your job offer doesn't contain a DOT number, it will not get past moderation and will not appear in the forum. The other requirements in the sticky at the top of this section are still required as well. Thank you for understanding.

I am about to give up!

    The discussion was about CRST and he pops in and says, "Which company is that?"
    I guess he's not a mind reader either, but a little focus...

    You do have an uphill battle. The biggest one is that you live in Florida. No company wants to send their trucks to Florida. No driver wants to be sitting in Florda!:biggrin_25512:
    You have to find a company that operates out of Florida! They haul Flowers, produce, coffee, ect. :biggrin_25512: Also look at small companies.:yes2557:

    Don't give up...

    Well after constantly nagging the recruiter I finally got approved for a job now I am on a waiting list for an available trainer in my area. I dont want to name the company until I have a date set in stone, but I have to believe they will be a step up from the way Werner treated me!

    Do you have a TWIC ??? I was told this week, I could run the crap out of FL, if I had a TWIC ;)

    I think many of our newbies on this forum are over looking that item. Which could make their application look a lot better. Especially since so much freight does come from port areas.

    True. Knight is currently running ads in the Phoenix classifieds for drivers to run to San Diego/LA ports. TWIC required of course.

    Dry box only :D

    We don't get into Florida that much. And when we do, it takes forever to work a driver out, if he doesn't have a TWIC. Thats why we don't do it much.

    I made the mistake of letting them know about mine LOL So they're looking to me, to cover FL loads now.
