We started to delete Big Scott's low and mean spirited comment, but decided to let it stay. It will help others get a handle on who he is. He put himself out there for us to see.

The FACT that he has multiple felonies and is forced to be a RSO speaks for itself. As Kearsey said it isn't hard to find information about somebody online.

I’m looking for a change in life.

but you're willing to try and cheat a drug test as you have in the past.

If you're serious about wanting to change then do it. Do not get into trucking until you know you're clean. You WILL be randomly tested with no notice once you're driving. If you're involved in any accident you will be drug tested. If there's significant injuries and/or death you're looking at prison time if drugs are detected. It's just not worth it. Just one failed or falsified drug/alcohol screen and your career is essentially over. There's a process to continue driving after, but nearly all large carriers won't be able to hire you.

If you're serious about wanting to make positive changes then let's start off on a positive note free of lies.

Correction by "You" I mean the warehouse staff, based on the electric palletjack at the rear of trailer on street, which I assume will be lifted up to pull pallets to tail.

Looking at street view in addition to the reviews it looks like they either have you pull it to the back and unload it from the street using a forklift or back a box truck to your tail and unload that way.

How's the recovery from your injury going?

Did everything with the drug screen turn out ok?

Do trucking companies have some type of Covid mandate? I never got the Covid shot and I really don't trust it either. If anyone knows one way or the other, please let me know. Thanks!

None that I'm aware of. There's still a few shippers I go to that won't allow drivers inside due to covid protocols so you call them to check in then they bring you paperwork. I like it better that way anyways!

I've also filled out an application for Prime Inc. I'm just waiting for them to get back with me.

I'm not sure if you're aware but Prime has perhaps the longest training period. They will send you on the road for 3-4 weeks with your permit, then after you take your cdl exam you'll team for 40 or 50,000 miles which I believe takes 3 months, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

They're an excellent option as are many others, I just want you to be aware of that as you contemplate your options regarding your cat.

I have asked everyone around me if they could watch him. Anywhere I've looked as far as getting him a temp home is some type of money situation that I honestly don't have.

If you haven't already, reach out to animal shelters and see if they have options available. Several shelters in my area utilize volunteers to have them at their home to keep them out of the shelter until they're adopted. Perhaps that's an option as well as pet rescues.

If you're relatively healthy go donate plasma. Many places, like Biolife, you can earn $800+ your first month if you do 2 donations per week. I'm not sure about your area but to board a cat around here it's $15/day.

Is it possible to tap into your 401k to get by? Sell some of your possessions?

Go visit the private schools in your area. Most have arrangements with numerous carriers that are willing to finance your schooling with the only expense being your permit and license (less than $100 total)

Roadmaster has a location in Dunn. Unless things have changed they're owned by Werner and can finance your training. They also allow a cat om the truck when you're solo. You will need to make arrangements for your cat because after school you'll go out with a trainer for a minimum of 2 weeks OTR.

Doing a search on indeed for your location for "dock to driver" or "driver apprentice " may yield positive results as well. Although a physical job and not typically recommended, Pepsi, Coke and food service companies are usually hiring people off the street to get their CDL and those would be home daily eliminating the issue of caring for your cat.

What does your current state show when you look up your license status on their website? Was your medical card up to date, or when did it expire? Some states an expired medical card is all that's needed to bring your CDL active while others limit it to 6 months expired medical cars before you must retest for your CDL.
