Now this is what makes good people, and drivers look bad. I have a past, but every incident is between me and my mother. I have to answer for my mistakes till the day I go, and even after. Doesn't mean I don't have morals, yet will probably be denied multiple employment opportunities. The victim and the suspect are both guilty, I don't agree with the for profit government, but c'mon. Just saying!!

Concerned about getting a trucking job?
Contest it, worse thing that happens is a judge doesn't ammend it. But more than likely especially if he is in a good mood will amend it down. Here in Washington State you have 14 days, not sure about the laws in your state.

Hey Powerball Winner. What will you do with that money?
Hold on to a million and go to every grocery store, truck stop and rest area and gift 10,000 at my discretion to whom I believe needs it the most. Irs cant tax those gifts. Maybe a few private prisons and hospitals would built. Again you have to play to win and im NOT even rushing to by tickets. Once all of it was accounted for go back to pursuing my dream to travel the country and get paid to do so.

Please help!!! Sort of a new student...
I correct my previous statement, feds lifted spending to dea and other agencies for enforcing the law on federal level. I'm not one to say that use of marijuana is or isn't to diminish mental capacities nor abilities to operate motor vehicle, I'll leave that up to the scientist that paid a lot of money for there education. If your worried about any drug test, first off stop use and purchase an at home test. Hair follicle test run around $50 and your answer will soon be found.

I find this to be a huge debate, medical marijuana is no longer illegal at the federal level, government is to be lifting said ban. But company's and recruiters will say other wise. I have been recommended medical marijuana since 2009. Im currently clean for ua and blood testing but will avoid hair follicle for at least another year. I forsee some discrimination lawsuits in the near future, if the feds did lift said ban. Shoot JB Hunt settled out of court over felon bs.

Haha sound like trucking has some of the same obstacles as cooking, I've had wing sauce in the eye while tossing, and jalapeno juice shoot me in the eye while dicing. Evaporating chilli paste is the closest thing I can imagine to mace, and evaporated vinegar separates the men from the boys. Don't assume kitchen life ain't rough. Lol

Tough Call...What would you do?
Just cause the refer is temping out 5+ doesnt meen the product is. Check the temp on the product as long as its below 40 its safe to consume. Still contact your DM and inform of everything you have learned. Again the product must be 40 to be safe to consume.

WIA not available to employed!
Thanks Everyone. I appreciate all the advice. Only a handful of the company sponsored training hires out of Washington. Also have a bit of a past so that also eliminated a few. My local employment office, (workforce) first question they asked was if I was employed. Then said that the program was for unemployed. I'm sure each state is different with grants. Working on finding credit unions that will give a loan with little credit history. My father might have education benefits through the V.A but not entirely sure.

Conway-Freight Bought Out By XPO Logistics
Place an application with XPO, it doesn't ask about moving violations or criminal charges. Hoping its a dont ask dont tell situation but most times if it sounds to good to be true it probably is. Anyone have an idea on their hiring requirements?
