I have just started training for the Class A CDL over in Connecticut at NETTTS & have some concerns regarding employment after graduating. I am 48, been driving for 30 years, no accidents, no convictions, no drugs - been a good boy. I am hoping to find a driving job for Thursdays, Fridays, Sats & Suns, home each night, hourly pay preferable. How likely is this??? or am I dreaming?

What do the placement people at your school say? BOL

Thanks for the quick reply. The School Director & the Admissions guy said that jobs are out there but I'll have to do some leg work - which is a reasonable answer & I will do all thats necessary...I just wonder if it is in their vested interest to put a positive front on the situation. I haven't spoken to the placement officer yet, which will be my next step. Is age an issue?

your age isn't, as long as you can pass a DOT physical you'll be fine. as far as the type job you're looking for...BOL! i'm sure you can find some as they are out there,getting one can be a different story.
