    I just want to say after this whole thread, thank you to everyone who gave me their input.
    I got hired with werner and I am now just waiting to be paired up with a leader and I should be out on the road in no time.
    Do I have my fingers crossed hoping it doesn't come back to bite me?
    Yes, even though I spoke to someone and told them of my rocky past, I told them that I was unsure of when I started which job and when I left which job, the whole reason I want to do trucking is to be done with that and have something more reliable, something I can actually depend on and be proud to do.
    Beats making peanuts.
    Thank you all
     
    kemosabi49 and Chinatown Thank this.

    Most companies would be more concerned about your driving history as this affects insurance premiums and shows what kind of a driver you are. If you have a good driver history over the last 5 years you should be fine other more important things include passing a medical plus a drug and alcohol test.

    Driving history is not the focus of the topic. It is of critical importance though generally speaking. Since the OP was not asking about tickets etc we can only assume their DMV is good. This is why I phrased my comment the way I did. Trust me, if the OP said they had a bad driving history my comment would have been much different! I can also guarantee I would not be the only one!
