    Hey I have a criminal mischief misdemeanor for breaking a store front window in 2016. Can I still get a trucking job with 22 months experience and nothing else on my record?

    Doubtful. Most truck national companies only want clean, sober, and no record.

    Which state do you live in? Some companies actually recruit felons.

    I live in Texas and it was a misdemeanor. It was not for drugs or alcohol, not even theft or violence it was just vandalism.

    No actually it was criminal mischief which means vandalism and I don't drive drunk or do drugs. I was court ordered get psychiatric help in witch I did for 6 months. Just looking for people with similar issues or have been through the same thing. I was at a bad time in my life thanks.

    Most employers will probably not hire you as it is a fresh conviction but some will so you just need to start applying places and see what you can find.

    Probably find something on Craigslist. I wouldn't mention court ordered psychiatric help though; that's personal.
    Here's a few to try:
    BT Express Global Services - Weatherford, Oklahoma
    McCurdy M.W. & Co. - Houston,TX
    TransAm​
