    I was given a warning for the passenger being in passion of alcohol and out of service for 24 hrs . I didn't know they had it, but on my PSP report it says that I had it. I was fired by the company, now I'm out of a job and no one will hire me. Can I get this off my record? Will I ever get a job?

    Never answer a question that hasn't been asked. Refer to post #5 in this thread. I know some guys cant help but talk, talk, talk but keep you lip zipped. Only answer the questions that are being asked.

    None that are worth going to. Take your lumps and wait it out. I am not going to ask the details of it, chalk it up to a lesson learned about who you associate with in the future.

    I met a driver who told me he did 18 years in prison because he had a "bad temper". Do you think a 25 year old misdemeanor will keep you from getting hired?

    You're posting on the wrong thread; this is the "owner-operator" thread.
    Go to "Questions From New Drivers" thread and you'll get more responses.
