Yard jockey=Experience?

I th

you probably read that wrong. You sure it did say “no less than 1 year experience”

 

Apparently a lot of companies don’t even count linehaul as experience since we typically run the same route and hours every night. Whatever, you can have your OTR jobs, wasted 8 prime years of my life out there and would rather go through chemotherapy again than go back to doing it...

 

How old were you during those 8 years?

 

Is a CDL required to be a yard jockey? I currently have a class A and almost 3 years OTR. I took 6 weeks off from driving and was required to go through the rehire process all over again. During my time off, I'd had some dental work (dentures) done through a cheap dentist (due to no dental insurance). I was prescribed Percocet and Amoxicillin. I took the Percocet for the first day only and the amoxicillin until they were gone. A week later I tested positive for cocaine on a pre-employment drug test. I've read about false positives involving antibiotics. I no longer have any paperwork from the dentist and miraculously (because I paid cash, I think) the dentist doesn't have any record of my visit. Imagine that. I don't know what to do.

Last Sunday when I got back in the yard dispatch need 7 trailers spoted into doors, Personally I'd rather use the sleeper.

 

A CDL is NOT required to operate a yard truck PROVIDED you are never going to have to operate said truck on a public street. If you do you will be required to hold a CDL and be subject to random drug screens.
