    Still no hope of a driving job in my future, every month when I pay $150.00 for my student loan for CDL school I feel like driving to Werner Corp offices and smashing some heads in!

    Did you go look at craigslist? I just looked in different parts of Florida & saw many of want adds for CDL drivers. It doesn't hurt to continue calling.

    I'm experienced, clean DAC and MVR, and can't find squat. I may end up at Cypress or Lester Coggins. Only 2 MAYBES I've had. And right now should be peak for the entire year. About september comes the winter sloww down.
    I can't take much more of this CHANGE and HOPE ....................

    Hey there, I'm getting ready to start class with MCT Aug 3rd. I was supposed to be in the previous class that just ended, however I needed to prove that I no longer had an apnea problem, which I did w/ a sleep study test...So $2,500 later..... Anyways I'm not assigned to anyone as of right now...a little worried about it. I have sales and marketing background for the past 9 years along with 3 years with the Army...25th I.D. -Geno

    I haven't read through all 46 pages of this thread, so I don't know all of the trucking companies you have been to, nor any that have been suggested. So, if you've already heard what I'm about to suggest, I appologize.

    Have you tried your local soda delivery companies, or beer distributors?
    Had a beer rep' tell me one time, if I would get a cdl, he'd put me to work.
    Every company is different, some may want experience. But, have you checked with them?

    I know a driver who has switched jobs with a child support issue.
    But, they still hire him.

    Good luck to you, hope something pops up soon.
