    I do not play. Im from chicago so im a hawks fan. My logo is the Chicago Wolves, they are an AHL team, been going to their games since I was a kid. Minor leauges are more affordable. And I saw 3 of their championships, so they are my other team

    OP you hit the trifecta: accidents, health issues, past felonious record. Best of luck to you, I wish I could point you somewhere but most any trucking companies would pass over your app for just one of those problems.

    You will probably have to go knock on doors at the mom and pop companies. Any mega company has an insurance gate keeper that will trash your application the moment it surfaces. Face to face with a hand shake will be your best bet as it will give you a chance to explain your history. Good luck.

    Go do Super Dumps or End Dumps, whatever they call them... I went there for one day, the guy training me, you could smell the weed off his clothes. He even admitted he couldn't work for a serious company because of his record and habits.

    There's work out there... You just can't work for the serious legit companies
