I joined this board a couple years ago after getting my CDL. I was worried that I would not get a job because I had 4 old DUII's in my lifetime. Even though they were all 10+ years old they would still come up on a background report and for sure on a DAC report. For sure I got flammed on this site for even thinking about driving. I am not one to back down and listen to the critics so I hunted work down. I will say that the bigger companies will probably not hire you right away. I did not however find it hard to get to work. I had so many offers I could work a different job every week if I wanted. I actually did work for about 6 companies in the past two years. Be sure you know what you want in a job before accepting one. That was one of my mistakes. I needed a schedule that would allow me to be home nights and they are hard to find. You usually leave with your truck at like 1-4 am so it is not the best schedule if you have a family. I did some regional work as well as local. Hauled reefer, double tankers, flatbed and dryvan. Also moved heavy equipment. So, if you have prior DUII's don't worry, you will get a job. Ok flame away you guys that have nothing better to do but keep the working man discouraged. By the way, still haven't drank and don't plan to. So there!
