    Well long story short,can't find an ltl job due to lack of experience,worked in Odessa for two months,came back due to daughter being sick,now I work as a shuttle driver for a dealer,which I like the driving part,but I also clean cars and shop.Depressing. So looks like I have to go otr,which I don't mind ,especially solo. Question is,which companies will accept me ? Got a clean Dac of course,mvr is clean,(last ticket in 09') and all my endorsements except P and S. Just the experience I am lacking. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    How much experience you got? What kind of trailer you want to pull? Do you have a preference in what region you run?

    No experience,just a two months plus school. Not really picky,cant be. I just need to get a driving job,either that or I will end up having to surrender my cdl. Theres no point in having one if I cant get a job.
