Ohio doesn't report tickets until you get three of them and then they report all of them. You are allowed 12 pts before you get a 6 month suspension. 6-10 miles over 55 mph is worth 0 pts. 6-10 miles over the speed limit under 55 is worth 2 pts. Running a stop sign is 2 pts.
So you have 4 pts out of 12.
The bad thing is you are required to report violations to your employer once a year on a DOT form. Your company might require immediately and could be a reason for termination.
Most companies allow 3 violations so it's up to your safety director.
If you get terminated you should be able to find another job.
Keep your nose clean until your record clears. Time to get rid of the bad habits and practice good ones. You can decide what kind of a driver you are. Which one do you want to be?
All this stuff is part of a drivers learning curve. That's why I say it takes a driver 5 years to become seasoned. Learn from it and improve yourself.
