    That was me that pointed that out as well. You won't be able to get it expunged, just like I said when I was guessing. Start knocking on doors, showing up in person to apply to companies in Central Florida, etc. It will be tough for sure. Good luck. If you're committed to making trucking work, you'll find a way. Have you checked JBS in Greeley, Co yet? There was a driver from Jax that got employed despite a felony, if I remember correctly

    Are you in FL? If so try Windy Hill or Armellini. They are a little more forgiving. You can make a lot of money at Armellini too! (floral runs) Plus you normally are only out for 5-7 days at a time.

    Armellini said they want people to be close to their terminal in S. Florida, according to my schools job recruiter. Windy Hill I think wont take me due to the misdemeanor is less then 5 years old. I could be wrong however. I live in Lakeland fyi.
