Get prepaid cell phones and create fake names for fake references and pretend you are the reference. It works like a charm. I had a professor in tech school that had been a Human Resources director for a large corporation. He taught every class to do just that.
I even created Email addresses for my "references"... Its a jungle out there. Go for the throat and dont stop until you get what you need.
This was the best and most reasonable suggestion I've read on this topic. I'm not saying that the other responses weren't helpful, they were, but it just seems like a man has to do what a man has to do to feed his kids. The gov't drives a poor unemployed man to desperate measures. During these times, everyone knows that jobs are few and far between. That's why so many are looking into trucking. Most of these people didn't grow up wanting to be Truck Drivers. It's all that's out there for so many people. That may be a sad fact, and I know many will say that if your heart isn't in it,
you shouldn't be a truck driver. Well, I'm sure there are thousands of truckers who went into the industry because there was nothing else for them.
