Profile For Leslie M.

Hi there Community, I’m sure you’ve heard this story before so I’ll get straight to the meat and potatoes. I joined Western Express right out of driving school and after being on my own about a month I was hit by another vehicle, Dot recorded, and I’d gotten a csa violation that I was too green to realize was a mistake- but I was fired for safety. Since then I have heard I need 6 months of safe driving to be hired; but I’d need to be hired first. That was a year ago. I do gig work in the meantime but I hate it because I LOVE driving a big truck- preferably attached to a flatbed. When I say it feels like it’s what I’m meant to do I mean it; but I can’t catch a break. I even moved out of the northeast to get a better chance and still no luck. I have reason to believe that I was fired mainly for looking for another company while working with them, simply because even my trainer told me he’d been through far more than that and of course he’s a trainer now. I accept that I wasn’t a perfect beginner and I absolutely see where I went wrong and have since removed my head from my hindquarters. I’d really love any direction because even the class b guys in my area want a year experience. Piedmont Triad area of NC is my current whereabouts. Any advice on how to reinvigorate my driving career would be greatly appreciated. I have all endorsements and TWIC; except passenger. I’m a veteran and I even a college graduate, but truck driving is life! Please help.
