Been there, done that, need to find a company
The qualifications
I have about 6 months OTR
The other half has about 3 years of OTR
We drove for Transport America (short stay for me, family problems at home) and we drove team for Werner.
-----------------------------------
We want to run team, obviously.
We want to haul van trailers. Dry, heated, refer, doesn't matter.
We have to be able to take our dog with us, she only weighs 20 pounds
I have a clean criminal and driving record
My other half has had is license suspended twice (young and stupid) the newest one being almost 5 years ago, so this shouldn't be a problem.
9 years ago, my other half got into some trouble with the law. It was more of a wrong time wrong place deal, but try telling that too the cops. Long story short, he was riding in a truck (pick up) with 2 other guys, the truck was pulled over and searched, there was an unregistered gun in the truck, and the two other assholes (sorry) said it belonged to my other half. Needless to say, he was found guilty, spend 3 months in jail, and in PA, his offense is a misdemeanor, but for criminal background searches for the trucking industry, it comes up as a felony. It has hurt a bit in the job search. It is the only thing on his criminal record, and we are trying to get the money for a lawyer and try to get it reduced or expunged. When that will happen, if it can, god only knows.
We can't go into Canada because of his record.
Any help will be appreciated!! Every time I find a company, there is always one thing that keeps us from going with them.
