    I mean this question is asked often. You can use the search function on the web site to see all of the answers given to the last 40 people asking the same question. It will be much faster than waiting for each CDL driver that uses the board to find your question and answer it again.

    work anywhere else for a few weeks or months until you can pass a hair test. You used the drugs, you can put up with the consequences of using drugs.

    You have a work ethic. People today have a play ethic.

    You can just show up as a flatbed driver to western express and then change to dry van once you get there. Lots of guys did that at my orientation 3 months ago. Don’t tell your recruiter. And don’t ask, just tell them you’re doing van, but wait until day 3 which is first day of load securement training. And do it before lunch, because otherwise if you quit you’ll be charged a large amount of money for that securement class. Van is 40 cents a mile and you’ll only get about 500 a check on good weeks.
