Regardless of anything else, it is against federal regulations to possess alcohol in the cab of a CMV, and that's going to be really tough to overcome with recruiters and especially with insurance companies.
Nevertheless, I commend you for not driving with alcohol in your system, and I wish you luck in finding employment. You'll probably have a long row to hoe for the next year or two but, assuming you don't have any previous alcohol or drug charges, I don't think this will be the end of your career. -
No alcohol in inside of truck, at all -
You bought a 12pack to only drink 4? I'd fire you for that stupidity alone.

Come drive in Canada. Alcohol in the truck is legal. I asked the DOT at the scale if it was ok if I hauled duty free booze back and he couldn’t understand why I’d ask such a stupid question and I have always claimed it at the border with no issues.
Oxbow, Diesel Dave, Concorde and 1 other person Thank this.
