And I seriously doubt ( and hope) you won't find a job driving an 80,000 lb truck with a recent DUI on your record!!! I don't know of a single insurance company that is going to insure you with a DUI on your record in the past 3 years, probably 7 years at least, much less 1 year old.

A quick search of YellowBook.com shows 22 McDonalds located in Stockton. Very local. Have a nice walk over to fill out your app.

Try in the last 10 years....(and now, here comes the "defenders" to tell us how wrong we all are...) Especially now, with the advent of CVA 2010, the new commercial driver rating system, you are toast....

with cva2010, your gonna need more than just good luck

yeah no major company is going to take that kind of risk so soon on your record. With the ecomony in the toilet, especially in cali I'm sure the companies are in a position to pick and choose. and CVA2010 will most certainly not help matters any. Here's hoping.

Well Wally you may find local work with a very small outfit....but forget the big guys.
I had a DWI in 1983 and it still shows up on my MVR.
Werner told me that even though it is over 20 years old I would never drive for them.
With the economy like it is they can pick-n-choose the cream of the crop.
Those are the ****** recruiters words not mine.

I would not give up, but it is next to impossible for a carrier to hire someone with a recent DUI, whether it was received in a personal or commercial vehicle. Insurance companies will go back 3 years. A DUI is nearly always an automatic disqualifyer. There are some carriers who will hire you after several years have passed. Most seem to want at least 5-7 years and many want a minimum of 10 years. You can check the company listings on this forum. It lists the basic requirements for most of them. It will give you an idea of what you will be facing in the near term. My guess is that you will likely need to find something else to do until that falls off your MVR. With the new 2010 rules it is anybodies guess as to what we will see. There could be some local delivery jobs, but they will still need to run you by their insurance company.
