You sound like every driver that called me last week looking for a job. I couldnt get anyone good on the phone...crappy week.
Seriously. Right now truck driving isnt really for you. You might be able to find some outlaw company to hire you. But they are going to know they are your only option, so they will pay you poorly, and make you do **** like run illegal. Stay clean, dont break anymore laws...and come back out here 10 years after your last probation date, and maybe I can find something for you.

However, I did think of an option for him. Go buy a truck, get your own authority, get all the insurance and I will get you plenty of freight to haul.

I'm not sure just how real or wide-spread it is. I talked to an O'/P about a year and a half ago that said after Jan 1 of this year, the insurance company would not allow him to drive one of his own trucks. 2 DUIs something like 18 years earlier. Buying a truck and getting your own authority is fine, but you still have to convince an insurance company to cover you. They seem to be getting a bit picky lately. Five years ago, it was 3 years after a DUI. Then, it was seven. What is it today? Ten years? Or no DUI ever? And, if you do have a DUI, what's your coverage going to cost you?
