    I would hold that thought on buying a truck. You have no experience and a bad driving record. You would have hell just trying to get someone to insure you let alone the cost! Someone will hire you. Try some companies like Windy Hill. Small family companies tend to be a lot more lenient.

    I wish you all the best, as others have said, try the smaller "mom & pop companies, then do your very best each and every day. Someday, you can then move to another company, unless the "starter company" that hires you, takes very good care of you, then you may want to consider staying there??

    Could a seat belt ticket keep me back? Might be a dumb question, but oh well
