    You need to get out there and look! Find a small fleet. Work cheap. Learn Quick! Don't hit light poles!

    I'm definitely looking but not gonna jump on anything until I've done my homework. My brother's college fund depends on me and me alone and can't mess up! :)

    Don't get your standards too high to start with.
    A working driver is much more hire-able to the next company than one who isn't working. It provides a work history to begin with.

    as was mentioned, construction, dumps, milk, or mail drivers. Also some newspapers are still hiring. Also lumber yards, and local carriers.
