What is the rest of the story? Have you been running local for 9 years? Did you get a CDL 9 years ago and never used it in a driving job? Have you tried to get hired on somewhere and been turned down?

Finding an OTR job isn't hard, check the papers, make some phone calls. If you haven't used your CDL in awhile, you'll probably have to go back through training or at least a refresher course. If you've done nothing but local work a lot of the big companies will want you to go back through training but a lot of smaller outfits will hire you no problems.

Try the beer delivery or the soda pop companys. You should be able to get into one of those
