    I got the word from TSA yesterday that my application was approved.
    Is it easier to find a local driving job with a Hazmat endorsement but only 2 months OTR experience.Possibly with a propane company?Any advice out there?

    Not really; most local companies want at least a year's exp, and those that haul HM usually require more (to pull a fuel tanker here, most cos. ask for at least two years TANKER exp, and some ask for three).

    Heck with only two months OTR, a lot of OTR companies will want you to go out with a trainer before they turn you loose with your own truck.

    ...at the job interview, the company's road test will be three pages long, I'm not sure I'll pass it-when / if the time comes, but the trailer is five feet shorter than the 53' vans. And it hauls placarded loads.
