I just was accepted by Empire Express, and orientation starts Monday. The recruiter told me that, even though I have worked for 8 trucking companies in the last 24 months, because I have never had a DUI , or any felonies or misdemeanors, and my CSA score is zero, I am worth taking a chance on. Can anybody tell me what kind of a company they are.

CSA:

Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA)

The CSA is a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) initiative to improve large truck and bus safety and ultimately reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities that are related to commercial motor vehicle

DUI:

Driving Under the Influence

Yeah buddy, the fact that you're even asking that question leads me to believe that this will be yet another company on your long list. You need a mind makeover my friend. Rather than asking for somebody else to tell you what kind of company they are, why don't you go into this job with the mindset that they are a great company because they took a chance on you. And if you find that you run into some bumps along the road, you can quit, or hopefully make a turnaround and stick it out.

If you are having issues because you can't drive at night - based on what you said in some other posts - perhaps driving is not for you. I'm not coming down on you for having whatever issue you have with light sensitivity and night driving, but perhaps you should let any future employer know about this in advance, so nobody is wasting anybody's time. Best wishes to you Patrick, I hope you can make it work, unless you really don't wanna be a driver anymore.
