Wonder how he is going to feel when it comes time to collect SSI and there is no money in his account because he worked under the table... The population of our country never ceases to amaze me.. Working under the table to save a few bucks, The IRS can now come back and complete a forensic study of how you have lived for the past five years and WILL come up with their own amount of what you made and then require you to pay taxes, Plus pentalties, plus intrest.. Just blows my mind that ppl think that is smart and they are getting one over on the government.

Best of luck to you..

I would suggest you spend the money for an accredited driving school, then start from the bottom. Start at a company with a trainer, and if they wonder why you catch on so quick just say 'I must be a natural' LOL

I did not say I did not pay taxes. The company I worked for was operating under the table. A lot of judgement on here.

You said YOU worked under the table, not that your company does.

Now......Maybe at 54 years old I am just ignorant......but when I see a statement that say's "I worked under the table for the last 5 years", I figured it means just exactly that. I didn't think it meant that your company was working under the table. (In fact......Unless a government official was involved in helping cover it up, I don't see how a company could work for 5 years under the table) Now....the other thing I think about when I hear "Under the table", is that you were paid in cash, and that those payments were made without the appropriate withholding taxes taken out AND that those payments were not declared as income......Hence the entire term....."Working under the table".

Like Timberwolf said.....best of luck to you.

You are ignorant if you believe everything as you read it.

If the company you worked for was a motor carrier and will verify your work experience, then you should be able to find suitable employment. It is easy to check whether a company has authority or not. You can also provide log books to prove experience. The feds require that carriers check at least the past 3 years employment history of new drivers, whether they held a CDL or not. Another way to prove employment is through settlement sheets or pay stubs. In any case, you will need to prove some work experience unless you are willing to go to driving school. You didn't mention whether you worked as a driver or otr, so I am making some assumptions.
