Hi, well I learned to drive unfortunately it cost me my job. Not exactly, about 7 months ago enrolled in CRST training program, passed test, went on road with lead driver, then set out on own with co-driver. During this time I drove approximately 30,000 miles east to west and I love it. Unfortunately, I was let go on April 1st. Yes I am the fool for taking things so lightly because I was involved in 3 accidents all within a short period. Accidents were minor with no injuries, citations or points on license.
Here is my dilemma, I am still under contract with CRST, until training fees are paid, but I cannot secure any driving position, which is about the only thing that agrees with my body because any perspective employer fears being sued by CRST so they will not hire me. I could borrow the money to pay CRST, but I will not do so until I have a job. In an attempt to make myself marketable I recently acquired tanker endorsement and passport and are studying for hazmat endorsement. I just want to drive!
Any advice on this matter would be very helpful. Thank you,
