    I am trying to find a company to sponsor my Truck Driving School Tuition. There are alot of them out there. My only problem is... I have a misdemeanor for possession of paraphernalia about 14 months old. I have a clean driving record, am prior military with a honorable discharge, and want to go OTR. PLEASE CAN ANYONE DIRECT ME TO A SCHOOL THAT WILL ACCEPT ME?!

    Wow, that's some list. Looks like you have most of the bases covered.

    Well it won't do any good to have a cdl and no one who will hire you. So maybe you can chill for a couple years and do something else. That charge is not old enough it seems for anybody to look at you.

    JBS ERGO is tough and most women don't pass it. I'm an employee and I doubt if they take the risk as well.

    JBS Carriers will not accept misdemeanor charges, and Nettts is out of my area. I would have to relocate.
