    I don't see any issues with the hair...but as far as the misdemeanors go just make sure offer full disclosure and understand that while you may have been qualified enough for a pre-hire to get at ticket to Dallas that your not "officially hired" until after your orientation is done. Your entire application package is reviewed again during that process. Unfortunately, I had a friend who did the whole 3 weeks of school, got to orientation and was then told and incident in his past, which he disclosed already, was going to dq him. I don't have many issues with the company at all and appreciate the opportunities they have given me but I was not impressed with that particular action at all.

    If you can go to a cheap community college CDL program, there won't be a problem being hired; many companies will hire you.

    Thanks for the info... my recruiter thanked me that i told her in advance rather than h (in her words)er finding it to make things better for her argument need there be if a problem arose... i also know that they do lie... also being that they are self insured, they wouldn't hire petty misdemeanor?

    Check with some other trucking company CDL schools also.

    Millis Transfer
    SRT (provide hotel & 3 meals a day)
    Swift
    Midwest-Coast Transport

    Either way, Stevens is as good a place as any to get started.
