Try Paul Transportation, they hired me out of Melbourne, FL and fresh out of school.
With 5 weeks at Cypress, it’s kind of hard to leave it off your resume. Just would create a new problem..work history gap.
Just say you left “junk equipment” it’s truthful in a way. Would definitely turn the tables on pettiness.
Remember, it’s only truck driving.nextgentrucker and jaws2003 Thank this. -
Go back to U.S. Express. Just tell them you made a mistake leaving them so soon, which i think you did..1 year experience is paramount.

We'll find a driving job for you after we know what's on that report.nextgentrucker and jaws2003 Thank this. -
Be sure to submit applications from each website before any phone calls. You can call a couple days later, after submitting the application. Call and say, "I'm checking on my driving job application."silverspur, nextgentrucker, jaws2003 and 1 other person Thank this. -
If some of the job rejections were based on phone calls alone, then just apply online and maybe get a positive result.
State to other companies you just weren't a good fit for flatbed trucking and think reefers & dry vans is what you really prefer.Last edited: Jul 16, 2025 at 12:50 PM
