Old Experience = No Experience ?

Not all companies require a refresher. There was a guy who didn't drive for years at my company, and he got hired with no refresher. It all depends on the company and what gives them peace of mind I imagine.

 

Those are not good companies to work for IMO.

 

No disrespect - but on paper, 10 jobs over 10 years with no longer than 6 months each, looks terrible.

Maybe you need to find something seasonal like harvest hauling or construction?

Or buy your own rig and authority and do as you please. Or a temp agency perhaps.

Buy a truck?

 

When the companies are having a hard time getting drivers and keeping drivers, why would they risk spending time and money on a driver that isn't going to stay? You need to figure out why you are leaving every company you work for and fix that. Then find a trucking company that matches what you must have at a job to stay there and be productive for a long time. One suggestion is work for a company near where you live and look at the medium to small companies in that area. I don't know what is causing you to quit these jobs, but that is the issue. Be honest with yourself and get that sorted out.

 

Is there some reason why you only work for mega carriers? EVERY trucking company needs drivers. I think you should carefully draw up a schedule that allows you to deal with whatever requires you to quit and then look for companies that have such a schedule.

 

In that case it seems you should work at Knight until you quit or they won't hire you. The insurance company isn't going to add up your few months here plus your few months later and eventually you get to some magic number they can accept. That sort of conclusion happens once you stay at a company. If you want a guarantee of a place to work after you quit, buy your own truck, and work when you want until you quit. Maybe you should buy your own truck and work when you can work. I'm sure it will be hard to have the money needed to do that until you can work steady, but maybe having your won truck will motivate you to keep working.

 

They may not hire him until he has 2 years experience.
