    I flew H-53s in the navy and I know exactly what he's saying here. In aviation you can expect other traffic to follow certain rules...no such thing on the road.

    Contact Royal Trucking in Mississippi. They are pretty understanding & offer training with license. You need to claim self employment on a cash basis or relevant to get past the work history. If everything else is clean, you'll find someone.
     
    newbie102 Thanks this.

    Trying to understand. You refused to drive because you ran out of meds? Or you couldn't get anywhere to refill your meds? This seems bizarre. If you give a more detailed account of how this happened, it can make your future clearer.

    That being said, you ain't the only CDL holder with anxiety or other mental illnesses. There is a population of drivers that have these issues and have been productive drivers for years. If you're able to get another crack at a Jon, try to stick it out under all circumstances as trucking requires a great deal of resilience.
     
    Concorde and newbie102 Thank this.

    We have a customer that is a mile or so down a very rural, barley wide enough for two cars, much less two trucks. They changed their hours and didn’t bother to tell us. And, they have gate that’s locked when they’re closed. One of my co-workers went there when they were closed and ended up having to back out of that curvy mile long road. Fun fun!
     
    newbie102 Thanks this.

    You could also try Total. Like Royal, they’re out of Mississippi too, Jackson I think.

    Where’s @Chinatown? He keeps a database of companies. I’m sure he has a list of “second chance” type outfits that would hire you.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.
