Where to go for a job?

I really dont want to find a new job buy have NO real choice in the matter. Laid off for the second time in six months & the lovely gov handout of unemployment dont pay the mortgage. I know lots of people are probly in the same boat as me. I've had the same job for 8 years, local hauling heavy equipment & pulling a bucket. I started driving a log truck when I was fourteen so experence is NOT an issue. Drove OTR years ago also. Just talked with one of the "big" otr companies & was more or less blew off bc my recent exp is not OTR. Now not trying to make anyone mad by saying this but in my exp when "strickly OTR" Or "school" graduates come to work with us they dont make it a month. But enuff about that I'm looking for a company to work for pulling a flat,dropdeck or bucket. Any ideals where to go?? Also clean driving record and no criminal record. Thanks for any input.
