    I think honesty is the best policy in case something comes back on you to bite you in the hiney. A lot of companies don't care about those little jobs (you can always explain that it wasnt' for you) if you have to 'fess up....but you want to be honest or they think you are a liar and cheat!

    Be very careful of what a school tells you....They only want your money and will tell you anything.........you get your CDL and then can't get a job...........:biggrin_2558:

    Well thanks for the replies. My dad is a ex CEO and told me exactly what you guys have said. I just needed to get another perspective from people who do background checks. If anyone else has their opinions, please keep them coming.

    OK
    Companies do care about little jobs
    They will assume you may be testing the water with them
    And after investing time and money
    You decide to try something else

    Even if you were to get your cdl, if those suspensions are still on you record, even a local company will not hire you, they normally dont check the dac, but they do check dmv, my husband has already been turned down for two local driving jobs, mainly due to a suspension, he cannot drive until March of 2011. I do believe that everyone has a dac, I have been told that they check everyones when you purchase a home, I have read it can be very influential, for some things?? As if a credit check is not bad enough!!!:biggrin_25524:



    Common sense is not as common anymore:biggrin_25524:

    Everyone has a DAC? Whether they have had a CDL or not? How would they know about you? It's not an FBI or CIA database is it? Even in that case, everyone should not be on it....

    Personally, I would suggest you go to your local driving school, not a CDL mill that is tied to a company. That way, you have a CDL, but don't owe someone else a fee or service for your schooling. There are grants and loans available to attend schools.

    Perhaps you could expound upon your record that is keeping you from driving?

    Good luck!
