Class B driver with Secret Government Clearance

Which state do you live in?
You really need to upgrade that Class-B to Class-A.
Upgrade how ever you think best. You can also attend a private cdl school to upgrade. I think there's one in Victoria, Texas that specializes placing students to oil field tanker jobs.
Stevens Transport has cdl school and tanker division in the Texas oil fields.


FFE (Frozen Food Express) has the same as Stevens Transport.

 

I'm in CDL School with a guy who holds a top secret clearance. From the military. He was an IT guy. He's actually doing this partially for fun. He's bored. Wants to do something.
He is considering DOE. Department of Energy. Transporting nuclear materials. Requires his top secret clearance. Says it pays up the wazoo. Then there's DOD?

 

I’m fresh out of IT as well. Love computers but people drove me nuts. Imagine supporting systems that generate millions of dollars, then be around when they go down...

 

I think there's one near Springfield and one near Joplin with cdl programs.
@RoadRooster - didn't you attend a community college cdl program near Joplin?

 

There is still a lot of competition in IT, and secret clearance isn’t that hard to get in the IT field because the job attracts that type of person that lays low and stays out of trouble. The problem with IT right now is so many people want to do it.

 

I may be mistaken, but I think I read Trailiner Corp. in Springfield uses a community college to train their new drivers.

 

I think you might do well at a company called pantech or spelling error of that name. They decommission nuclear weapons and process, transport nuclear material down to a gram. Nothing moves without oversight and they certainly have transport to a variety of places. They are in texas and somewhat hard to get to. You will know you are in the right spot when you see the pair of Gerties which are huge concrete structures under which bombs are taken apart that minimizes nuclear detonation.

As far as dealing with federal installations, you will need to comply with the real ID Act of 2020 in which you must have a enhanced CDL or DL to enter any federal installation including courthouses or board flights. All others who do not upgrade will be excluded.

The super duper secret clearances etc is something you will find has little value in the trucking industry and to sit in a truck stop talking about it is a way to make yourself a target. Generally it's a tiny sector of trucking that is used for ghost moves for the Government but it's such a tiny part of it. Everything else is military.

I don't hold a #### thing myself, have no interest in doing so. But it wont be the first time Ive moved trailers knowing nothing about them for Uncle Sam. I usually try not to over think it or wonder too much.
