    That must it! None of that is on there. No tickets! Reports were made on those private properties yes but no tickets. Nothing on my mvr so it must be on my employment history because whenever these companies check my BG they always say “schneider says this and this happened”

    Try Florida Beauty Express in Miami.
    Try North American Midway Entertainment.
    Yeah, you need to move to another state and get on with your life. Don't leave a forwarding address; "I'll send a post card; take care."

    A couple of New York City cabbies; both had multiple fender benders & tickets. Both found good jobs on Craigslist. They applied even if they thought they wouldn't be hired.
    One of them had 12 fender benders/tickets.
    One of them found a job within days.

    You can start with a household goods mover as a helper. Sometimes you can ride along to help the driver; may even do long haul. At least you get away from home and see the country. Later you can start driving.
    Here's one in Orlando:
    New World Van Lines
    New World Van Lines is looking for a Move/Helpers that is hardworking, motivated and professional.

    DUTIES:
    • Movers are responsible for traveling with our drivers to clients' homes.
    • Packing/unpacking homes.
    • Loading/unloading trucks.
    • Providing superior customer service.
    • Maintaining an efficient, professional demeanor at all times.

    QUALIFICATIONS:
    • HHG packing/unpacking experience preferred.
    • Able to lift 50 lbs.
    • Professionalism.
    • Customer Service skills.

    You are suffering economic losses due to too many preventables. You cost someone too much money and insurance probably has you rated at too high of a risk to hire. So find something else to do in life. You said yourself you have lost passion for driving. Find something you enjoy. It will be years before your position in trucking will clear out enough to be hireable again.

    This is why I keep telling people that when they get into trucking, hit stuff and break stuff too much, back home unemployed you go. Not just unemployed but unhireable period. You can probably move to Chicago and find a outfit that does not care about you and pay you something for the work. However its not worth the expense or risk to you.

    Welders here unless you are aluminum Tig with years of experience or hanging off the side of a ship down at the shipyard it's only like a $16/hr job. A few years ago everyone was gonna go make that big welder money and went to school so now there are way too many people qualified for basic jobs so the rate keeps getting pushed down. Kinda like what megas do with trucking. Got 40,000 people willing to do the job for peanuts.

    There's also United Van Lines and several other's in Orlando or Florida.
    Should be good here because your MVR is clean.
    Here's an OTR non-CDL job in Florida.
