    I would think you may have to show more initiative than that one line post.

    I don't own a truck but I have hired nearly 100 people and no one EVER submitted something so lacking in effort and got a call.

    Welcome to the form.
    I have to fully agree with jeep here. Resume` denied, if that's even what you want to call this? A lot of us need a job but I think this post pretty much dropped you to the tip top bottom of the list. Being a year or less behind the wheel your chance's of landing with an O/O are slim to none anyhow. They normally want experianced driver's. Google "truck driving jobs" might have better luck.

    I work for a trucking company and there is always someone who needs truck driver.
    Write down your email or ph # so I can tell them to contact to you if you are good enough to drive for them!

    I was only half joking on my previous post, but if one of you want to give me a job I'll be there.
    I graduated in dec. then broke my shoulder. I'm good to go as of a couple weeks ago but striking out everywhere. I live in northwest fl (willing to relocate) and I have an 8 year old drug possession felony, it was a dirty straw with just enough residue to test. I have a friend that's a lawyer that has gotten me a clemency hearing and it will be wiped off my record.
    I've been applying to companies online since I started school in Oct.. I didn't lie about anything on the apps. and I recently found out most of those companies put me on a never hire list.
    I have found a job with a local construction co. driving a flatbed or dump truck or equipment. The problem is he doesn't have work so it's only part time.
    Florida has started a back yo work program that will pay 95% of my salary for 1 year. FLORIDA BACK TO WORK PROGRAM. iF YOU WANT TO HIRE ME i'LL PAY YOU THE OTHER 5%
    If you want a free driver that needs to get experience and miles call or send an email.

    I think this was a BS thread from the start. Need's to be deleted. The poster only has this one post on the entire site.

    I was not able to respond to this post until now but i was able to put up my resume on another post. not 1 reply.
    I'm a recent grad. I've been working in a bar for a couple years and I get along with everybody. I would like to get a job with an o/o at least for the next year. I have a part time dump truck/flatbed driving job and my part time bar job. I live in fl and fl has started a back to work program that will pay 95% of my salary. if you want to keep your truck rolling 24/7 and not have to pay for another driver you can contact me and I'll put you in touch with my workforce lady that will set it up
