Hi Charlie, welcome to the forum.

Your age won't be an issue when it comes to finding a job in trucking. Companies like the clear and responsible thinking that often only age and experience can teach.

Hi. Interesting. Im thinking of the same.thing. 31 years in IT for me. Mike

Thanks for response Brett.

Either way I will take the written exam and use that as an opening.

Hello all,

Read some of the forum, and its all very interesting.

Am considering a CDL as a 2nd career, Im doing IT work, have been for 31 years now. So, i like that the CDL can open doors to alot of avenues. Not just OTR but local propane delivery etc.

Where I am, lots of farming and harvest brings out the trucks to transport.

Anyway, my goal is to get the CDL over time. Part time if possible and then start working part time on the weekends until my corporate IT career ends, either by my choice or age discrimination, (thats just reality)

Anyone have experience with part time work. I see that some companies have weekend only runs.

Welcome all replies, thanks Mike
