How do I get started on long distance driving?

I went to school and got my class 1 a few months ago. The only job I have been able to find is driving a body job for a crappy construction company that pays around $9 an hour and requires ALOT of labor (20% driving 80% labor). How can I get on with a company that pays a bit better and dosen't require as much heavy lifting?

are you willing to be gone from home (6 - 8 weeks?

 

..........

 

I'm single right now with no kids so that actually sounds pretty good to me.

 

Call New Century see if the hire students I know they run Canada and US you might get lucky

 

Many companies out there that are hiring, just be prepaired to be gone (weeks at a time) for a while...try to stay with whom-ever you choose for a couple of years and learn the business; you will have it made...pretty simple really, just have to make sacrifices in the beginning...

Good luck...
