I have 'apnea and a CPAP machine ... do I really have to shell out $3,100+ for another sleep study just for the DOT test ?!

For any one who needs CPAP ... these guys have reasonable prices ... CPAP Machines

Ok so you were an actual employee for each of the companies you worked for but the jobs don't last very long....is that correct? So it makes it look like you jump ship constantly even though that's just the nature of the business?

That is correct. Projects can be any were from 1 week to 3 months most of the time.

I have never worked as an independent contractor ...

The trucking equivalent of what it is like being an industrial construction worker:

1: Find a company who has a load waiting - deliver the load and get laid off. 2: Find another company with a new load, deliver that load, get laid off. 3: Repeat for entire career.

I know from past experience that non construction companies interpret this as a sign of a bad worker.

I was reading the guides on what is required to get a job driving, and have ran into an issue. The part that threw me for a loop is the requirement to prove 3 - 10 years of "solid work history". I'm an industrial construction worker - I only have a job for as long as a project lasts - than I have to look for another job some were else.

In the last 3 years, I have worked in 15 different projects, for 12 different contractors ! In the last 10 years I have probably worked on over 100 different projects, with 30+- contractors !

How am to deal with that when attempting to get a job ?
