DOT physical confusion for new driver

I could be wrong, but future employers will only find that out IF they talk to werner . So unless your next dot physical (and it doesn't matter if you have a valid med card already, most big companies it's their own policy that you go thru a physical with THEIR own doctors) so mum's the word about the blue truck company and be smart about what you say. Rule of thumb out there is, don't volunteer anything unless you have to. Because the road is weird and things can get weird and go the wrong way in a hurry out there. Nuff said, go out there and be safe and it ain't worth a 75k year job to play around with 4:20. 10-4?

 

No you didn't. Been there done that you can go thru a 420 education class and they consider you "retrained" or "reset" LoL it's all about the money, cause a class will cost you time and money, but if you can hack it, you're back in. But this class is only if you get tagged. DON'T say anything to anybody about taking a drug class try to get hired and then see if you're tagged or not.

 

Duie Pyle is a good goal. That's a winner, in your situation.

 

Estes Express also requires 12 mos. experience. One driver on here applied anyway and was hired to drive a box truck and be home every day. The box truck job requires no previous experience driving at that time anyway. He was hired from a New Jersey Terminal. I don't know if Duie Pyle will accept that or not.

 

Technically you did not fail the physical.
They terminated your offer for employment because they didn't like your personal history.
Lesson learned, keep your moth shut in the FUTURE!


A acquaintance of mine used to give an FBI interrogation of sorts (don't remember his exact terminology for it) but all candidates for the miltary were subject to a bunch of questions. A few of them were about past drug use. He would laugh and tell me how each and everyone that answered yes to past use would somehow be tested/tempted by someone working undercover at some point just because they answered yes.
Now I'm not sure about the validity of this story, but it seems everyone I knew way back in the day that got discharged over drug use has told me they admitted to past use during that interrogation.

 

My assumption is only if you agree to thier terms for refunding or paying for part of your tuition costs for driving school. Also if they are charging you for any further training, I would assume they could also it.

 

Duie is a good deal.

 

When I retired, we had 3 trucks and 12 tractors and 6 switchers; all making the same money and all home every night.

We were one of hundreds of local NJ carriers.....
