    Yeah... I said it... CDL FARM. After reading it here... that is the best way to describe it.

    So now what? I have driving experience, but only straight truck and 15 years ago. I know that it's not considered to be experience at all for those hiring.

    But now it's time to find a driving job here in the NY area. Ideally, I would like to run regional if I could, but EXPERIENCE... So now it is time to look at the OTHERS.... Swift, Schneider, Werner... Now what?

    I NEED the wisdom of those who have gone on before me. Any ADVISE?

    I am 42 years old. Honorably discharged from the Navy in 2001 after 5 years of service. In good health. Class A, Class B with all endorsements.
