Help! recent graduate can't get job! what the?

Nancy, you came to the right place for honest answers. Most of us recommend waiting a year from last use (of anything) to be sure you can pass a hair follicle test. Unfortunately starting one company's training and not completing it is going to hinder you. The other members can go deeper on those. But the good news is once you're with a company and solo, you can live in the truck and save most of your earnings. Don't give up!

Help! recent graduate can't get job! what the?

Drivers!!!! I very recently graduated from Road Masters in PHX AZ. Ok got a job at May Trucking. went to training and didnt make the cut so they say... So I called Covenant and they said no can do because I already tried May. I wrongly picked May because of their short training but apparently I need the extra training Covenant would have provided but I made the wrong choice. Both of these places were on my radar because I dont think I can pass a hair folic test because I have stupidly been using CBD oil with TCH in it on my hands to ease the pain of my arthritis (and it works killer) Soooo now I'm terrified to even try a hair test in case it registers the cbd oil .... I'm not a drug user by any means but I fear this! So Covenant tells me they can't hire because I worked for May Trucking for 2 weeks! Once I was terminated I knew I was in trouble and became homeless right then. I quickly took what little pay I recieved and rented a cheap room in Tucson, AZ. where I am now. Ya'll I can't find a job! Please help! I need a permanent job and place to live! I am trainable and teachable and loveable and this is crazy! Oh and I called RoadMasters because they said they offer lifetime placement... I called... The dude tells me he doesn't have anything. ZERO HELP! Ive scrubbed the job boards for will train new graduates and have not found anything except Swift which is a HAIR TEST!!!! NO NO! I have a temp roof over my head. A clean driving record. Current medical card. I want to do OTR and just need a break. I should have chosen Covenant in the first place. But I didnt. :-( Thank you in advance ~ Nancy

I have a valid CA and AZ lisence but...

Not sure how it happened.. I think when updating in CA she didn't realize I had been gone for 20 years in AZ.. but my CA is only a regular license and AZ is 20 year class b. I am wanting to get into a paid cdl gig for my class A Right away!!! I cant find a paid training is AZ that will provide me with housing as well - I am homeless due to a terrible accident and lost my whole family and my home. it's been over two years now and I'm ready to turn the page and go for my class A but I need housing to included in the package.. and meals and such until we get our training pay.. then I can pay my way but presently I live in the heat and on the streets and feel as if I might die! Anyway, I spent a short time in this messy journey in CA and had to "refresh" my old license ( grew up in CA ) The DMV lady just "refreshed" it no questions ask. So if I go to a paid training in CA my class B wont come with? How do I work around this and not have to do gen knowledge and air brake again (lol) There are no shelters here and no support I need to get out and get on. I'm ready. Does anyone have any advice? I would stay and train in AZ but nobody will include the hotel in the package that I have found because I live here. But going to CA for a few weeks and getting out of heat would not suck... I feel as if my days are numbered living on the streets here surrounded by all the drugs and thieves. You can only image when I have been through. It is BAD! I'm a good girl in a very bad situation and need guidance. Thank you! I am a trucker through and through and always will be and am so excited to finally get drive one! hurry! help! lol Nancy
